Great challenge to-day. I haven't used this oval die from Marianne Designs for ages ..and I really love it. The flowers are embossed in black (instead of white as is usually done) and painted with white pigment ink (see tutorial here on SCS Whitewashing Tutorials at Splitcoaststampers ) Each flower and leaf is fussy-cut with the bottom being popped up on a dimensional. The DP was from a pack that was in my stash for a while..without being opened! YIKES!!

Wow! I love this effect and cannot imagine the work in cutting and layering. How beautiful it is with just a hint of color! I think we all have paper like that somewhere. Most of us just can't find it.
