Whew! I tried all week to make a card. With each new day I looked at the challenge and thought,--ok, today is the day, but then it wasn't the day! I would start and get a little done, then be called away. Then when I would see the next challenge I would think, - hey I can add that to my card! So, after 3 days of trying to find time to be in my craft room this card finally came about. Unfortunately, after all that time and trying to get it finished, I am not overjoyed with the outcome. It will do, but certainly not my fav. card.
The challenges I did were
Wednesday's sketch challenge
Thursday's WT challenge lots of dots--my dots are liquid pearls, and
Friday's F4A I've got your back (stamping your bg) I did this with one big bg stamp and then stamped over it with a smaller stamp.
Thanks for looking!

Wow, this is so pretty. Your bkg paper turned out so fantastic...I love how you used 2 stamps. The liquid pearls give it nice texture. The die cut panel looks great. Such a beautiful card.

I think you did great incorporating 3 challenges into this card! The colors are wonderful...especially the turquoise. And the liquid pearls are awesome (and may I say applied with great precision).
I'm just like you with the challenges, LOL! Sometimes I'm thrilled with what I come up with, sometimes, not so...but anytime a card is uploaded, it is an accomplishment! Pat yourself on the back for this one, and another from me, too, because you did a great job! I love the colors you used, the mix of patterns and textures, the embellishments, and the fact that you got three challenges down with one card!
I don't know why you were disappointed with the outcome. I think it's absolutely WONDERFUL! I must see what I have that can kind-of, sort-of mimic your card. I love the color-scheme.
