The tissue paper was stamped first and then I sprayed it with several colors of glimmer mist before I adhered it to plain white cardstock. Then I sponged the edges and the silky ridges with some Vintage Photo distress ink. The old style calligraphy pen was stamped and cut out, then sponged with the same ink.

Very neat card! I like the image and your treatment of the tissue. My fav part about this technique is that it can be glamorous and shmmery, or it can be vintagely distressed and wrinkled! All depends on how you ink and/or spray it.
