This card was designed for the monthly challenge in our stampers group. The challenge was to design a card that contained an animal, no flowers, one-third of the card had to be striped paper and there had to be a punch that went through the front of the card. Honestly, one of our 'friends' actually came up with that. Thank you, Lyn!
Well, in the end I won the challenge for the group with this card which is a CASE of an earlier card of mine for a sketch challenge. Base card is celery, striped DP in celery. The top panel is Whisper White sponged with Soft Sky using a cloud template. Middle is wrapped in wide celery ribbon and soft sky ribbon. The animal panels are stamped in Basic Grey, with clouds behind them and a little celery painted on the bottom, mounted on Basic Grey. The bottom square is punched out and the inside view shows the bird square mounted on the inside that sits on a scallop using the scalloped square punch.
