This is my card for alpha challenge round 9 letter F, with a double challenge to use a face. Since this is a color round, most of the inks I used start with F. The mat in the middle is kraft cardstock and I edged it with vintage photo to get a darker mat. I had the card all put together and decided to add the little flecks (one of the stamps in the set). Big mistake, but too late once the ink was on the paper. It looked much better without.

I don't know - I didn't see it without, and I know that feeling. But to me the little flecks look like seeds blowing in the wind, and work very well with your girl with her floral wreath.

That's a beautiful image, Melody. I love the raised flowers and butterfly. I like the the flecks, they give movement to the card. I like Sabrina's suggestion that they're seeds.
