I have been sorting through my desk and taking the lazy way out....making cards with the 'bits' rather than put them away - this way I am getting some UFO's finished...this embossed Upsy Daisy has been sitting on my desk since the last one I posted, so I thought I would do something with it - then I saw the sketch for the Creative Inspiration Challenge: http://creativeinspirationschallenge.blogspot.com/
and came up with this card...as I have used both wet and dry embossing it also is for the StampinB Challenge: http://stampinbsdesignteam.blogspot.com/
and the Ways to Use it Challenge on SCS requires corruogated card on our card - so yay - a triple challenge card today!!
I love these colours and had just been using these papers for another card, so that made it even better!! I used the Fiskar Texture Plate for the lower panel, it made it look more like a canvas, it is the first time I have used the one, but I think it is going to be a favourite!! The corrogated card is left over from another challenge months ago...just a couple of thin torn pieces...I keep everything if I think I am going to use it again...someday I guess I will have to do a big sort out BUT in the meantime I will find as much use for it as I can!!
Each layer is mounted onto black CS to make it stand out. I have enjoyed combining these challenges, it gives more boundaries to work within and makes it a bigger challenge. Surprisingly enough for me, the only edges I sponged are the edges of the circle, the rest of the EDGES are CLEAN!!!

Love how you used the corrugated bit of paper. It looks just super and a great way to use those leftovers. The Upsy Daisy is splendid surrounded by all those wonderful colors.
