Challenge #203 3-2-1 Recipe "Round and Round" with TSOT Sketch 682

This is my Design Team project for Double Trouble #203 using the 3-2-1 Recipe "Round and Round" and combining it with our Sister Challenge for inspiration, Try a Sketch on Tuesday #682 which starts on October 28th. This card will not be entered in TSOT challenge due to the backlinking rule but used as an example of combining the two challenges for inspiration and to show how easy it is to participant in both challenges. Twisted Sister wanted us to include at least one bird and I chose to use a flamingo from patterned papers.  

The sketch is similar to a Side Fold Card and have previously made this fold using Mary Deatherage tutorial. After making the fold you just have to decide what you want to use from your stash to use the "Round and Round" 3-2-1 recipe (3-circles, 2-images, 1 Ribbon).  

I started with my background using patterned paper with flamingos for Twisted Sister's optional twist to use at least one bird. Vellum with circles was adhered to top of the two patterned papers to soften the background.  

Two sets of the triple circle die were cut... one for a pink frame and the other cut matching and lining up with one of the flamingos from the patterned paper. The negative cut was then attached to the pink frame and adhered to the background with 3D thin foam tape for dimension and no vellum which gave the tri-circle a spotlight affect. 

I don't use ribbon very often and have a small supply in my stash... I got lucky and found this pink ribbon with transparent ruffles and attached to the larger panel.  The sentiment was made with die cut letters and thought Aloha would be appropriate for this card.
