...You Give Me Strength

This is my submission for a couple of challenges this past week at SCS; the Ways To Use It Challenge #241 (Patched Up!), and the Inspiration Challenge #203 (Anthropologie). I chose to use the colors in these Blush Grove Tights as my starting point, then added stitching between my pieces of patterned paper to create a patchwork look. The patterned papers were from K & Company, and the bird was from the Birds and Blossoms Diecut set. The sentiment was from the Verve set, "Believe", and was stamped in Soft Suede Ink. I added some paper piercing to the focal panel and the large Sage Shadow Cardstock panel, then added some Rhinestones above the sentiment and in place of the bird's eye. I used the Scallop Edge Border Punch on the horizontal Melon Mambo Cardstock panel, then tied some So Saffron Grosgrain Ribbon around it. All of the panels were attached to each other and the So Saffron Cardstock base using Dimensionals.

That's it for me today! Thanks for stopping by, and I will see you again tomorrow with another creation! Until then...
