  • ink - early espresso, night of navy
  • stamps - elements of style, secret garden, lacy & lovely
  • accessories - markers, oval and scallop oval punch, secret garden framelits, square lattice folder, midnight muse ribbon
For the background, I stamped elements of style flower in early espresso ink on naturals white cardstock and then embossed with the square lattice folder. Then I colored with the markers, and it gave it a vintage, antiqued look.
