This is for the Fan Club Dirty Dozen challenge, Harvest or Fall Holiday's. It started with this sticker I came across in my candle drawer the other day. No idea where it came from, but I must have saved it because it was vintage looking. My finished card is 5" x 7" because of the size of the sticker. I did not want to cover it up much so I just tore the edges in places and added distress ink to it to age it. The brads look really shiny, but are actually pounded and distressed with black ink. The DP is by Bo Bunny and the image is on dimensionals. As always, thanks for looking!

Wow, Shelly! This is fabulous! What a great sticker to build your card around! The DP is a perfect complement and I bet the brads are awesome IRL. The hardware bracketing the sentiment is the perfect finishing touch! As you can probably tell, I think this card is PERFECT!
