This is the card that I have made for the second Clearly Besotted Challenge - Seeing Spots. My inspiration came from some cards made by Jennifer McGuire as part of the Pattern Play Online Card Class - you really should check these classes out they have some fabulous ideas and techniques.
I cut half inch strips of paper from my My Mind's Eye Miss Caroline paper pack and adhered them diagonally to a plain piece of paper. I then used my Clearly Besotted Leafy Accents die to cut the leaves from the patchwork papers and my Tim Holtz Tattered Flower die to cut the spotty flowers. The sentiment is a LOTV stamp.
I would like to enter my card into the following challenges:
Clearly Besotted Challenge 2 - Seeing Spots
Craft Your Passion Challenge 171 - Thank You
There She Goes Challenge 216 - Metal (metal brads)
Addicted to Stamps Challenge 54 - CAS

I like how you made your own paper using paper strips - it's such a great idea for using some of those scraps and I like the look of it! A very clever and pretty clean design!
