I thought of combining as much challenges as I can into one card - and I guess 8 challenges is my limit. This is kind of like a throwback card for me because I used this card as an inspiration. One thing thatÂ’s not too obvious but adds a lot of visual texture is the spray of dark red acryclic paint on the light green cardstock. This was done by thinning the acrylic paint into the consistency of cream, then flicking a paintbrush dipped into the paint over a piece of hard netting.

Beautiful! Popped over to your blog to read more about your supplies and process - how interesting, the digital piercing templates! Clever idea. Love the pairing of red and soft green, your wavy sentiment and stitching. So glad you could play along with me!!
