I smushed Distress stains in tumbled glass, spun sugar, barn door, scattered straw and vintage photo onto my craft matt and spritzed with water. I stamped the damask background onto watercolor paper and heat embossed in white then placed the panel to absorb the colors on the matt.
I die cut the flowers out of the Financial times newspaper because I like the pinkish tone. The leaves were die cut from watercolor paper and colored with DI stains as well.
Audrie and Cathy, thank you for the inspiration and challenges!

Unbelievably gorgeous! The background alone is stunning, but the addition of the beautiful roses carries it to spectacular!

Your background is wonderful! I love the colors you put together for it. The pinkish flowers came from newsprint already that shade? - Wow, What a bonus!

Totally amazing who you could get tumbled glass, spun sugar, barn door, and scattered straw to look like this, Angela. Oh, wait. That's the color. Got it. Unbelievably beautiful bg with those gorgeous flowers. Just another day for Angela to create her magic.
