I think this card turned out to be a little bit western
The piece by the image panel reminds me of the designs on western shirts.
For the Ways to Use it challenge today ~ Denim Anniversary ~ I used "denim" as inspiration. SU! Taken with Teal reminds me a lot of denim and also I think of cowboys and westerns when I think of denim. Who knows why, b/c cowboys aren't the only ones that get to enjoy this fashion trend! hahaha
Today's Queen for the Day is Judith! (StampingQueenJar) Her gallery is just full of yummy stuff. I picked this card: Gallery at Splitcoaststampers
AND FLIPPED IT upside down! I used punched circles instead of buttons & my curly label punch for the sentiment instead of an oval.
Also, this card goes with a challenge over in a "punchy" card swap I'm in. April challenged us to use a non border punch to make a border. I had to go with circles. I love em!
One other challenge this card goes right along with is with my blog group "The Crafters of Faith". Jackie challenged us to make a loving card with a nature theme and we had to use at least 1 circle.
Whew! I think I'm through listing challenges now!
tfl!
