So over on Crafts by Carolyn the current Create a Card challenge is certainly challenging for me. It's a recipe:
0 big blooms
1 feather
2 brads
3 gems
4 patterned papers
Eek! Four papers?!
After shuffling stuff around for an eternity, I finally used an idea that the lovely Lythan posted as a Valentine's class at Scrapstars.
I punched squares from papers that came in a 'baby' sort of pad and made them into a patchwork heart so my penchant for a plain background went unchallenged. The feather got split down the middle so the heart could take flight and I faked some stiching round the edge with a map pin and a gel pen because it didn't look quite finished somehow.
Still not quite sure about it!

Wonderful - what a fab way of using four patterned papers.
awww this is so cute and clever.
Lythan's patchwork paper is such a brilliant idea and fast turning into one of my fave techniques.
Don't you worry Joanne, you'll get the hang of this patterned paper eventually and then you'll be just as hooked as the rest of us!
Joanne its gorgeous, i love the lilac colours well done.
