Lots of Layers and Circles

 Morning and my second post today is for the Lots of Layers challenge-chosen by Cathy at Dragonfly Dreams

I made a card using p, paper from Crafters Companion, circle dies from My Favourite Things and a couple added on 3-D foam - I also added a strip of dry wall mesh for texture and some small flat backed pearls from stash.



Please note if any challenges have digi images for prizes I am just playing for fun and support as I don't have a printer

  33. The layered circles create such a playful and dynamic composition, and the addition of drywall mesh adds a brilliant touch of texture that elevates the whole design. I love how the patterned paper choices harmonize so beautifully—each one feels thoughtfully placed and adds to the visual rhythm. The pearls are a sweet finishing detail, giving just the right amount of elegance. This card is a wonderful blend of structure and softness!
