Three challenges in one card= check

Monochromatic= purple hues ranging from mauve to red-violet to violet and a bit of blue-violet for her tape measure with neutrals of brown, white, and black

Layout= turned upside down; altered slightly with placement of paper clip and added the medallion/brooch image

Vintage linens inspiration photo= using online search engine I found this amazing vintage image of a Victorian-era gal getting ready to sew and had to use it...in fact, I think I'm keeping this card!!

    1. Sometimes a trifecta happens that is pretty amazing! I don't know how some of these crafters can have paper crafts that fit for 5 or more challenges, yet more power to them if they can make it happen. Have a wonderful safe and happy time camping this weekend!
