Shaped card for several challenges

I needed a simple card for a note to a friend - and this is a chance for me to try using dies for a card base.
Challenge:  create a shaped card:
 http://marksfinestpapers.blogspot.com/2012/02/speedy-fox-and-friends-challenge-94.html

and   http://alotarubberstamps.blogspot.com/ 

and also:  http://sentimentalsundays.blogspot.com/

I used stamps from the MFP Born Free set, stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black on cream cs..  I embossed both Labels 4 shapes, and sponged with brown chalk, and added a tie of Chocolate Latte Dream String from Pizzazz Aplenty.
I started this blog as a spot to show some of my challenge cards - and have not had time to pretty it up!
