2. DD9ABC4D - Alphabet Challenge/ Color Letter D = Denim - 3/14/18. SU's Dapper Denim is the perfect color for this. The bonus challenge is use dry embossing. My cardbase, center horizontal strip, twine, and flowers in the dsp and tag are Dapper Denim. I dry embossed my floral dsp and the center strip, though I'm not sure the picture shows the embossing well. It is visible in RIL.
#3. CT0518 - Central Theme for the May Dirty Dozen theme of Mother May I? The interpretations I am using are: 1) create a card that reminds you of your mother...this card could well be a Mother's Day card for my Mom; 2) show us your May flowers...I used a floral dsp; and 3) try something new...I took a kit and used its parts and revamped its original design.
#4. DINSP0518 - Dirty Dozen May Themes = Inspiration photo. Used its colors in my card.
#5. USEIT2018 - I'm using an old Spellbinder die that I've had for years, and I'm not sure I've ever used it, plus an old and retired embossing folder.

Charlene, I think beautiful patterned paper is making a come back! I'm inspired by your card design, and will continue and look for the many ways I can incorporate patterned paper into my designs too. Thank you for sharing this card, and I hope it blesses the recipient.
