Happy New Year! Okay, so it's mid-May but I was inspired by Drunken Stampers' Braveheart challenge, to think about men in kilts ! (Wahay!) I knew I had a bagpiper image somewhere and found him on Peerless Designs 12 Days of Christmas CD (He's a piper piping). Then I had a 3 hour search of paper packs, cds, digital images..to find the right tartan to paper-piece him with! Then I created the sentiment. It all took so long that I'm barely scraping in for the deadline.
The other inspiration that brought this card together is a new challenge, As You Like It - use your fave die or punch. I love this clock die by Sizzix/Tim Holtz - it fits so many themes and adds a bit of shape to the project.

Is there a better choice than to paper piece him with tartan patterned paper? I think not:) This card definitely gives me the right "Scottish feel"!
Wow! You nailed this challenge! Awesome job on your card and I can so relate to wasting hours trying to find the perfect paper! LOL! Thanks for playing along with the Drunken Stampers!
