I don't do too many shabby chic cards, but that is what Carol likes and so that is what I tried to give her. I am entering this card for both the CC and MMTPT challenges today. I had taken my wood Mount stamps from this set apart not long ago and mounted them on cling foam. So now maybe I'll use them more. I do still like them even though they are really old. I only used the smaller flower and he bud! I masked and stamped three blooms using my MISTI. Had to stamp the darker lines three times on each one in order to get the darker color. /the body of the flowers were only stamped once. I cut across the panel at a diagonal and fussy cut around the flowers on the bottom edge so I could use a partial panel of the Suede DP. I even used the old tearing edge which has been in a drawer unused for years.

Wow Pat, I absolutely love what you have done with this card by using this wonderful older SU set and making it feel new and modern again. You have inspired me to pull this set out now so thank you for that! I love how you positioned these flowers on the diagonal and I love the torn and distressed edges you gave this wonderful vintage card. What a terrific card for the challenges Pat! ~Karen.
