I'm killing 4 birds with one stone with this card! It's monochromatic for Sankari's Get Your Diva On challenge in the Verve forum and it's mostly blue for the F4A challenge. It also uses Tosh's great sketch for week 3 of the September's Viva la Verve challenges! There is a new challenge on the block - Dolce Stamps and Cards Thursday Challenge and Heather has asked us to create a distressed card, so I will enter this there as well. I went with papers from MME's Stella & Rose "Hattie" collection and also used PTI's vintage cream CS. After I had it all together, I realized I forgot to sponge the tag...DRAT! I will have to add that later (yes...Freud has a name for people like me - lol!). The yummy lace trim is also from MME...a find on my last shopping trip. The flower is one of MFT's newest Die-namics and has endless possibilities! The tabs were made using SU's word window punch. TFL!
STAMPS: Tag Time & Great Friend - both by Verve.
INK: Blue Bayou, Antique Linen distress ink by Tim Holtz.
ACCESSORIES: Dizzy doily Die-namic by MFT, Flower Die-namic by MFT, Little tag dies by Verve, Word window punch, Sprig dies by Verve, Fern punch by MS, Brads, Baker's twine, Lace trim, Distressing tool, Sponge.

Simply stunning Wanda...I'm starting to think that vintage may be your thing! From the looks of this card, I don't think you could tell me otherwise. Love the distressed/sponged edges, the sweet home made flower and the gorgeous doily! A masterpiece of chic-ness!!
