The Inspiration photo we played from for the challenge can be found in the link: Forums at Splitcoaststampers
I played off the shapes in my title and added a bold flower to finish off the card.
The red circles are two sizes of punches (Punch the smaller hole first) lined up very carefully, then just thread the strip of cardstock through the circles just like a needle and thread, going through the front on two and the back on one. Tacky glue holds them in place. The flower center and the circles on the long strip are also two sizes of punches.
The base the flower is sitting on is a vintage door panel with a keyhole. It just didnÂ’t look right for the card but I liked the single flower sitting on it.

Love the contrast of the colors. Great use of recycling red from card. Great shade of red too. I really like how your wover the red circles on the silver strips. Nicely done RoxI!

Okay, this is totally awesome. I love how you threaded the strips through the red circles. The colors are awesome and talk about a card that pops! It pops!
