I used an old stamp from the now out of business, Flourishes, who once had Marcella Hawley as one of their artists. She now owns her own company called Power Poppy. I stamped the image with Versafine clair black ink, and colored it with alcohol markers. The design papers are some oldies from my stash from a Basic Grey collection. I embossed the entire background with a Sizzix lattice embossing folder and then rubbed over it with a distress oxide honey ink pad. I used a punch for the oval for the sentiment and a die for the circle. So I think I met 3 different requirements for three different challenges. They are these:
to use something from the garden and an old stamp that is over 1 year old (this one is probably over 10 years old.
to use embossing and a fruit or veggie
And the sketch of this card is from the sketch challenge:
