My handmade flower is from several dies including Tim Holtz Tattered Floral die and was made with paper and crinoline, sponged with Antique Linen and Vintage Photo distress inks and the dabbed with some of the gold alcohol ink mixative. The Tim Holtz clip was also painted with the mixative and I also applied the mixative to the bead caps which started out life silver toned. The flourish is from Boss Kut. The sentiment is from one of my all-time favorite SU! stamp sets - Happy Harmony. A scrap of crinkled seam binding and natural hemp finished the card off.
Thanks again for visiting this morning. Hope to see you back again soon. And thanks, as always, for the lovely comments you leave. I am trying to visit everyone's blogs once a week or so to repay the favor. Have a great weekend.

what a great way to use the clip!!! I would have never thought to pull the seam binding threw the holes of it! The sentiment is awesome. Oh and the brad is perfect too. Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful card with us at 4 Crafty Chicks.

Linda this is GORGEOUS! I LOVE your flower, it is sooooo pretty. You always have such wonderful elements to your cards and your flower is no exception! Beautiful job on this week's challenge.
I love the card, the vintage feel is so warm. I'm curious what is "crimoline' that you used in the flower, I'm sure I'll figure it out but jsut wanted to let you know that I admire this card very much, trully gorgeous and should be displayed.
Linda, this is just lovely! I have really grown to love your style and don't you dare call it "junked up" again! I love your take on the sketch and HH is one of my all-time fave sets too!
