This is my take on this week's inspiration challenge. I love the fresh natural colors in the inspiration picture, so I tried to use those, coming up with a combination of white, river rock and sahara sand. I applied some antique linen distress ink direct to the card base to give it a more rustic look. I inked the flower (which looks similar to the rug in the inspiration piece) in sahara sand and then rock and rolled the edges in river rock. I added some stardust stickles and a do-jiggie for a little sparkle. Thanks Karen, for getting me stamping again!

This is beautiful! It's pretty much as I imagined I would make a card, but I don't have the time or energy right now. I love your beautiful flower! Lovely pearl ornament.

This is such a peaceful flower from the inspiration piece.
