My TLC398 (Dimensions), CAS191 (Plaids) and SC405 Fall Birthday card. I used "Flannel Plaid" background stamp for a subtle background on the main layer..crumb cake ink on crumb cake cardstock.
After sponging Tangerine Tango and Cajun Craze onto the crumb cake CS that was punched out with the Decorative Label Punch I stamped the Flannel Plaid that was inked with Cajun Craze. Again...a subtle plaid look.
The sentiment was EB with Tangerine Tango EB Powder. I added more color with my Cajun Craze marker.
My favorite part....Dry EB with my Woodgrain EB Folder a piece of Crumb Cake CS and punched out with my Bird Builder Punch.. I sponged the bird and leaves with chocolate chip inks.
The main crumb cake layer is popped up with dimensionals. I slipped the sponged decorative label layer into the punched label and added a double layer of dimensional foam tape to the bird. Punched a bird using chocolate chip CS for a shadow effect.
I really like all the dimension and yet simplicity of this Fall card. Would work for a guy card too.
Enjoy and thanks girls for 3 Fabulous Challenges.

What a neat card with great techniques, love the window behind the bird, and the use of the flannel bg. Could be man or woman card too. What a great way to use the bird builder punch. TFS

Love,love,love this card. So much texture, and yummy colors. Will definitely CASE this one (at least as close as I can get it, not having fancy labels punch, plaid stamp, not anything in those SU colors---LOL)

Great minds.... I actually have a plaid EF and am planning to make a card and use it for the background for this challenge! I have to make a masculine card for my husbands boss sooooo.... ANY way I love this card and you ROCK at knocking off three challenges with one card. I love the way you stamped your plaid background, very subtle but effective! This is such a great CAS card!
