My card today is inspired by two favorite challenges. Just Add Ink #723 is a Choose Two Challenge. The choices to pick from are circles, tree and ink-blending. I went with circles and trees. I pulled out some favorite patterned paper from my stash to do the heavy lifting for this card.
This takes me to the second challenge. I love it when I have beautiful paper for the focal image as well as background elements. As You See It Challenge #334: Fill in the Blank wants to know, My Favourite Item to Craft With... Patterned Paper.

Patterned paper is a great tool - even if it's not one of my own favourites. I can see why you enjoy it. I like how you've taken the colours from the paper to use in the rest of the card. Thanks for sharing with us at As You See It - and very glad we make your favourite challenge list too. :-)
