This is my sample (one of them - I'm still working on something else!) for this week's WTUI challenge, which you can find HERE.
I remember when this Crimped Diamond tutorial was posted. I really wanted to try it, but the crimper I had at the time would barely crimp a single sheet of copy paper, never mind cardstock folder over. Fast forward to early this year and I included a new crimper as part of my Moddy Christmas gift from Amazon. Thank you to all who contribute to supporting the many volunteers who work behind the scenes.
I added the twine because I had a different centre in mind, but it wasn't coming together. So then I stamped the bird and coloured him in colours that would at least pick up on the twine. I used the crimped diamond as a template to get the shape for the centre, then trimmed it down and distressed the edges. The edges of the crimped panel were sponged for a little extra definition.

I really like how this technique turned out. I had not seen that one until I saw it on your card Sabrina. I will have to check this one out. Nicely done.

Fun, Sabrina the sponging really does add a nice depth and dimension! And, thanks for moo-ving my carton over! You certainly know your way around here better than anyone else I know!!
