Here's my Hugs 'N Braids card for today's challenge. I chose this for my inspiration. http://www.drygoodsusa.com/Product.a...ale=n&pg=1
I also used the braided card technique found here:http://brandyscards.com/2013/04/stam...m_medium=email
The image is from Penny Black Hugs set. It is colored with Copic markers. I added yellow stickles to the flower center and the butterfly. The edge was sponged with crumb cake and suede. The designer paper is from Print Poetry paper stack from SU.

...sure it’s got a catchy beat, but can you stamp to it?
