This is a three-fer card -- for three challenges this week.
First off, this is for this week's Queen for the Day challenge, which honors Shadow's Mom, aka Lee-Anne. She has a fabulous gallery, and I was inspired by this card. WT322 Everyone by Shadow's Mom at Splitcoaststampers. I started out doing a really close case, and over the course of the evening the stamps, colors and layout have all changed.
This card is also for Free 4 All this week, where we are celebrating stamps we purchased and never, ever used before I got this SU set at a consignment sale back in March-- it was still in the tote bag I brought it home in. It has been sitting right under my stamping table for months. The sentiment is from another set that has been unused since I grabbed it on clearance at Mike's.
Finally, this is for Ways to use It, Piercing. The upper right corner seemed sort of bare, so I added a little piercing up there
