My card was made to fulfill the VSN Bohemian Chic challenge. The photo inspiration reminded me of a collection of Stampin' Up patterned papers that I bought a few months ago named "Symbols of Fortune." In my search of other possible challenges that might work, I found a total of 13.
1) JUN22VSNJ - Virtual Stamp Night Challenges/ Bohemian Chic by luvtostampstampstamp - 6/18/22--5 pm EST. Search website provide for inspiration for your card. My inspiration comes via Bing. I was inspired by this bedroom's colors and patterns. Hippy Boho Bedroom via Bing!
2) CAS693 - Clean & Simple Challenge/ Let's Strip - 6/6/22. Challenge: Add at least one/ or more paper strips. I've add two layered woven paper strips.
3) AOCC22 - All Occasion Card Challenge/ June 2022 - 6/1/22. An ongoing/monthly challenge that encourages you to set goals ahead for each month to help you complete and mail your cards more timely! This is a much needed birthday card for my stash!
4) USEIT2022 - Use It Challenge/ June 2022 - 6/1/22. An ongoing/ annual challenge that requires you to use OLD/ DUSTY and long unused items and/or OLD/NEW items purchased, never used, and seemingly forgotten!

5) MIX486 - Mix-ability Challenge/Geometry - 5/20/22. Challenge: Add structure to your card with repeat rows, repeated geometric shapes, etc. My card features paper strips in the shape of rectangles and are layered and repeated twice vertically and twice horizontally to create a weave. My mediums: dye-based stamping ink, computer ink--inside verse, and Copic markers: YR09-orange, G20-green, and Y38-golden yellow for butterfly coloring. (Note: the photo shadowing does not allow colors to show up but they are very pretty!)
6) CT0522 - Fan Club Monthly Themes--May 2022/ Bring May Flowers - 5/15/22. Challenge: Think florals, florals, florals...open theme. My dsp paper weave is definitely floral with a touch of an Asian flair!
