Here is my entry for WT190. This was out of my comfort zone, but I wanted to try it. Thanks to Faith (Markie's Mom)...I used her idea of embossing, freezing and scrunching to get the crackled effect. I had some paper that looked like cracked paint and used this technique on it...then paper-pieced the awning and flowers and set them out with pop-dots. The awning and flowers were a little too bright to go with the distressed window and box, so I softened them up with more water to make them blend in more. I like the end result. It did take me quite a while though, so this card is going nowhere but in a scrapbook as an embellishment!! No chances of it being thrown away!! lol tfl

I don't blame you for wanting to hang onto this beautiful card! The image is gorgeous and I love how you popped up the awning! The corner brads are terrific! Wonderful job on the challenge!
