I started with a base of Early Espresso and used the scalloped circle sizzix to cut it. Then I used two dp's from the Holiday Mini. I stamped my image on Vanilla and colored it with Copics then sponged Pool Party while it was still in the die. You all are probably tired of seeing me use this stamp but I love it. I put lace on my card instead of ribbon. I cut a flourish with a Cherry Lynn die in Pool Party and also another CL die for my leaves in Lucky Limeade. These were placed on the card then I put my image on and used dimensionals to pop it up. I needed a pop of color thus the little flowers from my stash.
This is for two challenges. First it's for the TSC for tomorrow but I have to post early. Having 3 other couples over for dinner tomorrow night so I'll be busy. The challenge is to make your card brown and any other color you want. Use 2 dies or punches and ribbon or twine. Use the Keyword TSC0406 if you would like to join us so we can all see your card.
Next it is for the Ways to Use it Challenge. We were to color something for our card with anything we wanted. Fun challenge.
I made this for a very special lady. Hope she likes it. Thanks for looking.

Really a beautiful card, Sylvia. Love your circle format for this lovely image which you have colored so beautifully. Pretty die cut elements add a lovely touch.
