Such a lovely site for the Inspiration Challenge! After much back & forth, I couldn't decide which I liked more..THIS or THIS ..so I combined the two. I used the wood plank wall from the second for my background & the flower in the bottle for my main image.
For the background, I stamped the wood grain fence in gray ink then sponged on the lt blue, antique linen & gray inks to resemble the different wood planks. It looked a little too bright & new, so I took some thinned down white acrylic paint & dry brushed it on top & also spritzed some to get the drops.
On the main image, after stamping the flowers, I masked just the one lower petal & stamped the bottle. I used a Copic multiliner to extend the stems. I took a couple of extra pics showing how I did the out of the box die cutting & those along w/ the Copics colors are on my blog: The Write Stuff

Your woodgrain bg turned out so pretty, Julie! I love the soft colors and antiqued effect given to it. Checking out your blog, I realize how easy you make the out of the box technique look. Thank you for the tips. Amazing blooms in the bottle~

Julie, I'm back!! At least I am trying. Saw your beautiful card on the gallery and just had to stop by and visit. What a great take on the inspiration challenge. Love the woodgrain paper and the lovely flowers/vase. Great to see your creations again. Take care.
