3 Challenges in ONE! :) Flourishes/Midnight Madness & Paper Maniac


Ok, so I decided to make just 1 card for three challenges...maybe because it was getting late and I didn't want to stay up until 3AM...or maybe because it was just because all three challenges went really well together! I made this card for the Flourishes challenge, Midnight Madness MMSC17 and the Paper Maniac Challenge.
The sketch above is from Midnight Madness, it is No. MMSC17.{oh! I had to turn the sketch so my stamp would fit!} The challenge for Flourishes was to create a card with no coloring. And Paper Maniac's very first challenge is to do some embossing. I used the sketch above, stamped in a very gorgeous Unity stamp, embossed it and filled it in with some glitter. I even embossed a piece of yellow trim in the background using a Fiskars punch (can you see it?) I love the colors on this card, hope you like it too! Time for bed now! :)
