Phew! I've been sweating getting all the challenges done in time and I managed to squeeze 9 of them on this fun center fold card.
I used Glimmer mist on the background panel and it really sparkles IRL. I sponged over the bricked embossing on the oval. I made the little leaf on the apple out of a piece of green felt.
I made my own envelope out of a piece of patterned paper since the card is 5 1/2 x 5 1/2. I have templates from Paper Source and on just happens to be 5 3/4 x 5 3/4 - perfect for this card.
The red plaid is on the inside - but I folded over the flap so you could see how pretty it looks! I stamped the background across the apple on the envelope in pink but it doesn't show to well in the picture.
I don't think the challenge keywords are all going to fit in the keywords!?! but I'll at least link them all back to the challenges!

Ace work with the combining, there's nothing contrived-looking at all about this. Love all the different textures with the felt, embossing and binding.
