I will confess, I went a little Challenge Happy with this card. I have been mulling over ideas for the July Repeat Yourself Challenge at A Blog Named Hero ... I finally decided to use repeating stripes of Washi Tape.
Then when I saw the Shopping Our Stash Challenge is Quit Bugging Me!, I broke out my Hero Arts Bug You set for my focal image.
Next I saw the colors at the CAS Color Challenge (although I now realize my card isn't CAS, so I won't be linking-up there ... sometimes the details get lost in my creative process), I thought they were perfect buggy colors.
Then I saw the Tic-Tac-Toe at the Retro Rubber Challenge Blog and realized I had some wooden tags on my studio table that would work perfectly for the Sketch at Sketch ~N~ Scrap Blog & that challenge, so I pulled out one of my oldest Hero Arts Essential Messages that are at least as old as February 2012 when I made this card. I did vertical across the middle with Clear Embossing on my Praying Mantis, lots of Greens, and my Wood Tag.
I love this one! Multi-challenge cards are one of my favorites to create, but it's been a long time since I put one together. Other than the CAS part, you nailed the others!
