I Just LOVE the Look of...

wet, dingy-stained, pattern paper flowers! Originally the patterns were NOT dingy ... my friend Paula sent some old patterns she had to me and I have had them sitting on my craft desk for sometime now. I finally cut them, misted them with water, and stained them with some distressing ink and VOILA! shabby-chic flowers! ;)
I made this card for the texture challenge over at GinaK stamptv. I felt like I included quite a bit of texture...bling on the dress (paper pieced), embossing flower strip, and of course my pattern paper flower! I like how this card turned out and I am pleasantly surprised with my abilities to make a couple of pretty cards since I haven't touched my stuff in quite some time!
