Stampin' With Michelle Pepper

The challenge closes on September 29th, so there is still time for you to participate in the challenge too :-) I have just entered the challenge with this card, so join me!

Fellow SU Demo over the ditch Tanya Bell shared an excellent tutorial on how to make this card.
