I made this for today's New technique challenge - Triangle medallion fold.
I made the medallion out of Martha Stewart double sided dp. Main card is 5 x 5 white card stock. next is a textured brown. Upper portion is MS dp, I ran the white CS through the bug with the Swiss dot folder. Did a wandering stitch around the edges. Added the brown and brown/blue checkered ribbon. used my rectangle plain and scalloped nesty for the brown mat and blue Martha Stewart dp. Stamped "For You" in versafine vintage ink. Cut out oval nesty. Attached the sentiment with stylized silver hardware. Attached the medallion with SU filigree brad and a blue large brad. Attached the large silver brads (purchased at Staples) The medallion panel is up on dimensionals. All edges were inked with ruby red.

Oh do I love that wandering stitch. It is so perfect for this medallion. Lovely job. The paper is so pretty. I like the way you tied all the colors together. The brad in the middle is a great finishing touch. TFS
