I changed her square panel to round, substituted square brads in place of the sentiment and made the dsp wider. I also added a strip of complimentary dsp rather than a ribbon.
The second challenge was TLC. Joan asked us to dry emboss and sand patterned paper. The paper I used reminded me of walpaper, so I ran thru a polka dot ef, sanded to give the effect of flocking on wallpaper. Hope you can see it.
Thanks so much for taking a closer look - hope you like it

You really have these vintage 20's ladies down, Barb. Wonderful card with the sanded bg panel and lovely coloring on your lady.....reminds me of the Downton Abbey gals.

I agree with Sallie..I was thinking Downton Abbey as well...very chic! And yes I can see your embossed pattern..the paper you chose worked well for that technique! This card is so you!
