This is my sample for this week's TCL 505 Spirelli challenge, and I was able to finally make up this chick into a card for Gail's Keep Connected HYCCT challenge.
I stamped my trendy chick with her cellphone (Four Calling Birds in the PB Christmas set ;-)) on white card and coloured her with pencils. Stamped the sentiment on white card and punched it out. Added blue mat layers, and then pink scalloped circles done with the Spirelli technique and a fine metallic thread. I used the same thread to add a border to my embossed base, and finished the card off with a die-cut feather to balance things out.
You can find the Master Challenge thread with all the HYCCT challenges HERE, and the chat thread is HERE
We do hope you'll join in this fun month of challenges for our 5th annual Hope You Can Cling To card drive,with plenty of prizes for those who participate!

I LOVE THE STRING!!! Now THAT is kick butt inspiration and out of the box thinking, girl! As we all know I'm one of the "it takes her longer to really understand things, if you know what I mean....bless her heart" people, I'll be along in an hour or two. That's how long it should take me to figure out how to pronoune the challenge. heh heh

A very cute card. I love the Spirelli Technique - it really adds a nice touch to your card. I had never done this before; it was fun and I like how it came out. Thanks for a fun challenge.
