I almost like this card.  I’m hoping my creativity will flow better tomorrow.  I think it is because I am working out of my card stash.  I have a basket that is overflowing with scraps and pieces and embellishments that I have decided would work better on cards than on my scrapbook pages.  Products used: KI Memories paper, Making Memories metal-rimmed tag.  I used watercolor pencils to color in the gift.  Brads, stamped image, ribbon, and metal mesh are unknown.
Challenges:
Friday Sketchers 62 – sketch
Belli Challenge #70 – Metal Tags
Pile It On Challenge #8 – Watercolor

I love the colors and the layer of metal mesh.. Great idea.. And I hear you on the overflow of scraps… I just keep getting more containers to store my scraps in. lol. I really need to go through them like you are, and see if I can use them on small projects…. Good luck with that… Thanks so much for playing along in the Creative Belli Challenge… :O)
