Monday Funday #25 Circles and Scallops

Hi everyone.. I am here with this week's Monday Fun day #25 brought to you by the Fabulous and Fun Farm Fresh Challenge Blog.. This week we have a "Super-Fun" Challenge not to mention quite easy and simple.. This week our Theme is     "CIRCLES AND SCALLOPS"...  We don't care how many How you place them, just as Long as we can see your Circles and Scallops we will be "happy".. 
For my card I went out my box a little and went for a CAS card.. using two stamp set from The Greeting Farm.
I used The Brand New March Release "Sitting Casual" and the Clear Stamp set "Flutter Heart" after trying several time on scrap paper.. I still did not get a "real clean stamp" from my set, But it will have to do..  I used three different shade of colors with my Memento Dew Drop Ink. I just Love trying new technique with these stamps. I also tried something a little different with the Front of my card.. I have watched this technique over and over again on YouTube; where you Emboss just a portion of your card or lay out with out having to cut it out.. So I used my Circle Scallop; Place it with my card stock and ran it thru my cuttle bug.. 
Here is a close up, once I did that I paper pieced Ian's Chair from the stamp set with paper from M Minds Eye, I cut it out and used pop dots to pop it up. My card base is from Paper Trey Ink. Sentiment is also from the same stamp set. 

Here is the Inside of my card.. I just stamped the same chair just with the Ink. I may add a sentiment later, but for now this is what it looks like.

Now if you would like to play along, Please had over to the Farm Fresh Challenge Blog for all the details, you will have a whole week to play along and get our cards posted, so lets see what you can do with some circles, and scallops.

Challenges:
Stamp and Create- paper piecing
