What a fun challenge from Kandie for our Teapot Tickle today. You know I couldn't resist a DIY plaid--it doesn't take much to talk me into my favorite technique
I was happy to have this free digi from Just Inklined and have a reason to use it. It was really fun to color and I think it's really pretty. I should use this image more often. I lightly stamped some script in the background and mounted it on glitter paper for some sparkle to balance out the yarn underneath. When I think of Celtic culture, I think of sweaters made of thick beautiful wool, so I had to add some yarn.

Well, this is so Celtic! You have the plaid, the thistles, and even some yarn! Great job on the DIY plaid. I am not so good at it. Perfect card for this challenge.
