The Card Concept #47

HI friends! 
A new challenge starts today at The Card Concept, based on the picture below. I was inspired by the colors!


I used a floral embossing folder with some kraft cardstock as the card base. I die cut a piece of water color cardstock with a scallop oval die from Avery Elle.  I stamped my roses from the Delightful Day stamp set from Clearly Besotted and colored them with antique linen distress ink, I was attempting to go the cream color roses look. I made a bow of twine to put on the flowers and finished the card off with some sequins from Pretty Pink Posh.


That's it for my card today! I hope you'll play along with us at The Card Concept!
Have a lovely day and thanks so much for stopping by!!

    Fantastic, Shannon! I love that you've been using oval focal points...something I have never do, but you've got me wanting to try.
