Here is the card I made to attend the above two challenges:

I am trying to make a tri-fold card with two stamp sets - one from Avery Elle's Phonomenal stamp set and another one from Lawn Fawn's Let's Roll stamp set. I cut the circles from the top panel and the second layer. For the card front, I attached a glitter cardstock circle frame and brushed the Altenew's Square Weave Pattern stencil on the background. I also attached a pair of chopsticks on the side of the circle. I stamped "You Make Miso Happy" under the circle. Once you opened the card, the second panel shows below:

On the second panel, I colored and cut out the sushi rolls, and attached them on the left side of the circle. I stamped "I like the way you roll" at the bottom right of the panel. When you open this second panel, you will see the bowl of ramen at below:

I have so much fun to create this tri-fold card and combine different company's stamp sets to make it.

Ink Pads: Gina K Designs, Stampin' Up, Distress Oxide ink
