Embossed with Regal Corners EF, cut frame and (popped) sentiment holder from Spellbinders Labels 13. I used the Memory Box Wild Flower corner die (from die club) for balance. I formed the leaves and added some lines to give it a little dimension. I sponged on Antique Linen on all die cuts and the EF. I added half pearls for interest...
Thank you for stopping by and taking a peek! It is ALWAYS appreciated....

This is so elegant, Peggy! It reminds me of antique ecru or fine linen that has slightly discolored and is all the more precious and treasured!! I can imagine unwrapping the layers of tissue paper around it, after lifting it from the old trunk ... enchanting! Hugs, Darnell

Oh, Peggy, I saw this card on Pinterest and pinned it and never got to comment! It's absolutely stunning! You have such an amazing way of using embossing and exquisite dies to make absolutely gorgeous cards!! This is one absolutely beautiful card, and I love how you "antiqued" it with sponging!! Hugs, sweet friend!

Your work is simply astounding, Peggy!! One palette, but what you do with it to create the most incredible cards. This is gorgeous in its creamy white, myriad of beautiful die cuts assembled in an elegant design...and then the "icing on the cake"...the tiny seed pearls to add more fine detail.

WOW, Peggy!!! LOVE this elegant card!!! I love the Memory Box floral die in the corner--stunning! The embossing and the pearls really add a lot as well as the sponging of ink to add more dimension. I can only imagine how gorgeous this card would be in person!
I've never made a monochromatic card like this, clearly I need to do so!!!
Your style never fails to impress me, and I appreciate all I learn from you.
