Hello!
Well, I am finally posting this card for the PDCC#82. I spent all evening trying different things on this card. I nearly gave up and trashed it! Whew, I thought OK, let's try one more time. I just had a difficult time incorporating the light blue for some reason. I added my aqua copic marker to the middle of the flowers, distress ink(broken china and antique linen) to the frame, and blue gems. Also, I added antique linen distress ink to soften up the blue paper. So, I'm glad I didn't end up trashing this card. The soft colors for this challenge are just too beautiful to resist for a shabby card! Time for lunch here and to enjoy some lovely sunny skies! Take care and enjoy your weekend! Thanks for visiting!

ReplyDeleteThat's really soft and pretty, Maria! I love that frame, and how you put a tiny chair inside of it. And the punched trim / crochet trim along the sides of the card were a really beautiful accent. THanks for playing with us at THe Cafe (and thanks for leaving some love at my blog, too!).
