I sponged the DP using with the Layers of Color Botanical Swirls Art Stencil, tearing one edge and sponging it with the distressing ink - I used Frayed Burlap and Peeled Paint to get this look!
A row of chunky lace has been added along the lower edge - I love the texture this adds - I had actually put it aside in my 'one day......' pile - I am glad I kept it!!
The flowers from the Nature Walk set have been stamped, cut and coloured, popping them up on foam tape in several places. I add some tape under some of the leaves to add more dimension. Black brads are added. A strip of an old Hymnal has been pleated and sponged, then added beneath the lace! The SU sentiment has been punched with a 'Ticketed' Punch and tucked in with the flowers....you can never have too many of these cards on hand.
I have tried to capture the two colours on the sponging with the Art Stencil, but it is overcast and not such a good day for photographing....but you can see the gorgeous Vintage Corner that was added as a finishing touch, along with two small black gems.
