For my card, I am using the image by Morgan's Art World and I used all markers on the image. I trimmed it down and framed it a couple of times. The background mint dotted cs if from Core'dinations and has a great texture to it. The scroll work, I have no idea where it came from. I cleaned my craft room and found it on the bottom of a scrap box that was hiding for a very long time. I would have to assume that it's a cricut cut from long ago. The sentiment was edged and blended with cracked pistachio and hickory smoke distressed inks. All was set on a mink cs side fold base.

The scalloped half-circle is from Sizzix. The sentiment on the front is stamped with gold embossing powder. The clear gemstones are from Lucy's Cards. The paper flowers are from Recollections.
The inside of the card uses the same paper set from Recollections and the same stamp/die set from MFTs. I edged the sentiment tweets with coordinating distress inks.
I hope you have fun playing along this month. I like playing with different folds.
