My card for ~Fee~ was one of the ones I am least happy with, so I've made another - a simplified remake and a different colour scheme of a card I've made before.
This time, to give it a cleaner look, I masked the edges off with low-tack quilting tape. Sponged with Antique Linen and Tea Dye. Roses in Winter stamped with Mustard Seed, Dried Marigold and Peeled Paint. HA script stamped with Versafine Smokey Grey. Linen stamped with Weathered Wood. The button is cut from a scrap of my first failed attempt (crooked stamping of the script and a sentiment stamped straight on the base which didn't look as good as I wanted), and I used a sentiment from TCP.

I have not played with these stamps in a long long time, so its great to see them here, fabulous, with the other textures mixed in... In colors I have never considered in my head for them... the masking edge is just great too!

What a clean, crisp look you got by taping it off - I thought it was a second layer it is so perfectly done!! Just beautiful!

Beautiful, Sabrina! Missed DTGD this year and just now getting the chance to browse. I want to see the other card, too, so I will go look up ~Fee~'s challenge.
