I was delighted to see Lisa's fun Shabby Chic for the Teapot Tuesday theme this week. It's not one of my go-to styles, but a friend who knew I was in Paris for my birthday sent me these beautiful papers and they were perfect - and the buttons and tiny little bow.
I embossed the pink paper and sponged with Antique Linen which added more interest but obliterated the soft pattern on it. Added fancy borders above and below, edging the top one with lace. Stitched to a piece of DP cut to the card size. Added the flowers and butterfly, with Dew Drops on the body.
The envelope was stamped with Bonjour, and has a little insert which you can see in the attachment I'm adding to my post on the challenge thread...just got time before heading to work.
Let's see your lovely shabby chic creations and, if you like to join our destination this week we are sending comforting thoughts to Karen (Art Deco Diva) whose mother died a few weeks ago.

OMGosh, Sabrina, this shabby chick is gorgeous! I'm such a fan of this style, but NOT over-the-top fussy, and this fits my style to a "T"! LOVE your beautiful soft patterned paper, the lovely embossed center panel, the curvy die-cuts, lace, butterfly, and ephemera tucked tag!! This is just GORGEOUS! To my FAV's for sure!
