I didn't quite know what to do with Lisa's wonderful challenge today. After going through stacks and stacks of papers, I opted to begin with G45. From there, it seemingly came together, unlike yesterday.
Come join the fun with today's WT challenge found in the forum area.
For the USEIT2016 challenge, I used 2 die-namics dies never used before. Plus, I believe it's been 3 years since I've used flowers on my cards.

Hugs everyone.

Oh, your card is gorgeous Anne!! I love the colors of whites you used. You distressed your papers like a champ, which I think shabby chic really needs. Your lace is a beautiful embellishment!! Well done!!

Anne, this is FABULOUS! Love your image. Your elements just captivated me! You layered them so beautifully. Wonderful touch by distressing the edges of the panels! Shabby chic is not easy but what an outstanding job you did!
This is a very striking wedding card. Love the vintage image with the newsprint behind the bride. The pearls, lace, flourishes, and flowers are very chic! And I love the shabby roughed up edges too!

This card really sings to me.....there is so many neat elements to this shabby chic creation. I love pics of vintage brides...their dresses were so dramatic like your image. All the elements represent that era. My favorite would be the lace, and the printed paper. Remember when they actually had wedding pictures in the society column. TFS Fav'd
