This is my card for today's Free for All challenge, which was to use Perfect Plum, Barely Banana, Certainly Celery and a basket - real decorated OR stamped. Can you believe I don't have a basket stamp! I didn't either, but I have checked all my obscure spots and none turn up.
So, I decided to weave one. I wove it with the green and yellow paper and then put mesh over it and added silk flowers from Michaels adhered with brads.
The stamps are Endless Creations Sentiment and Heidi Grace Flourish. Thanks for looking.
