I decided to combine 3 challenges which are Free For All-On Edge, Queen For The Day & The Spotted Canary Spring challenge. Congratulations Jill aka quillister, loved your gallery. I chose this cute Owl card: IC223 Owl be thinking of You by quillister at Splitcoaststampers
I used SU creamy caramel as the base. I layered with lime green cs, again with the creamy caramel cs. The bird dp is DCWV Green Stack Recycled Paper. I stamped the bird with black stazon onto SU creamy caramel cs, colored with SU markers, cut out & added a gold rhinestone to the flower. I used a large circle punch on close to cocoa cs, then used a large scallop circle punch on creamy caramel cs. I used a circle stencil in order to sponge the circle, I used SU Green Galore ink. The bird is raised with 3D dots as well as the branch after I cut it out. I tied ribbon underneath 3 times. I used a medium scallop circle punch on lime green cs, then used a medium circle punch on SU really rust cs, than a smaller circle punch on creamy caramel cs. I hand wrote the sentiment with a black fine sharpie. It's also raised with 3D dots. I also added 3 more gold rhinestones. I used the white Signo gel pen around the edges of the lime green cs to make it look like faux stitching. That's the challenge for being on the edge.
