Today I'm sharing a card that I've combined the requirements from various challenges, which itself is a challenge for myself!
The sketch is adopted from The Paper Players:
Then I've incorporated stitching and distress as required by Black Tie Friday:
Finally I've got a circle and three brads to participate the recipe challenge at Catch the Bug Challenge blog.
So my card looks like this:
I'm sure you can see the sketch is adopted from The Paper Players. The distress was done around the circle where the birds live. The vertical banner was added some interest with a border of hand-stitching. I wish I had a sewing machine. The stitches took me quite a while. You see a circle inside the scallop and three brads in the red panel.
Really fun to incorporate all the elements in these three challenges!
