For the "Y" alphabet challenge- wrapping fiber around a block- I used rough twine, and went mixed media by re-purposing my twine as a card wrap. Used SU'f Fall Fest for my die cut leaves, and a grasshopper mini stamp for my bottom border.

Terrific card for Letter B - bugs border! You get "bonus points" for doing the Double Challenge - background made with yarn-wrapped block. I like the leaves, too. Beautiful. TFS

What a fun fall card you have made here with your yarn-blocking on the bg. Everything about your card feels like fall with your sweater-weather bg, the falling leaves, and the grasshoppers (bugs). The touch of twine is perfect for this card! ~Karen.

I so love how your background turned out. I especially like the way you turned you stamp horizontally and vertically to show contrast and add interest. Your grasshopper as a border is terrific. With the leaves and the grasshopper, I image this to be a lawn with fallen leaves and hidden grasshoppers. Great job!

Great card for the B challenge. I did not even think of using twine, because I did not have any yarn, so I love your idea to get this great background!
