Sharon, notimetostamp, issues challenges every Friday and I have yet to play. Time is always a factor for me. Today, I pushed projects aside and made time. This card is my entree for Challenge #23. Thanks Sharon, I truly enjoyed playing. We were to use a flourish on our project. I've used the new background stamp from Flourishes (I'm so in love with those two background stamps!). I used a retired SU stamp for the focal image called Serenity. The pearls are from Ellen Hutson's online store.

WOW - WOW - WOW!!! This is GORGEOUS!!! I, too, love the Damask stamps -- they will go ANYWHERE!!! They can create such a soft background or a striking foreground!!! And your main image is such a lovely one -- framed in the ovals -- so special!!! So vintage -- and your ribbon/bow and tiny pearls are just perfection!!! I am SO glad you played -- thank you so much -- I so love this card!!!
