Boy did I agonize over this card. I wanted to try the emboss resist and I found a pretty card by laurakj using that technique. My sponging is a bit "gloppy" compared to her elegant card. It is for my sister and she likes antiques and aging techniques and I had a buckle from an antique store that I wanted to use and had to find a way to incorporate that. I sort of worked backwards. Then I couldn't find a ribbon that I liked with it. So for better or worse, here is my finished product.

Your agonizing turned out stunning! Your sister is going to treasure your card and hopefully appreciate all of your agonizing creativity. Your buckle, heart and beautifully shaded flowers are so perfect. TFS
