This is so not what I was thinking of when I saw the sketch before work this morning. I don't know how I ended up here!
A2 base.
Papers are all DCWV Once Upon a Time.
Light squares embossed with Swiss Dots and then wiped with Dusty Concord.
Dark square embossed with Stylized Flowers, sanded and wiped with Pumice Stone.
The text paper was trimmed down and layered onto the blue base layer after embossing with Stylized Flowers and sponging the embossing and edges with Pumice Stone. After stamping the blue flourish (Faded Jeans) I added two different ribbons. Pearl brad added to the swirl, Hambly rub-ons on the right-hand embossing. Sentiments from Carte Postale stamped on.
Should there also be a brad in the centre of the flower panel - in the end I decided not.
TFL.
