With a couple of extra days off work, I was able to fit in a card for the Power and Spark challenge over on the Power Poppy blog. I printed the Gerbera Daisies digi image and sentiment on X-Press It Blending Card then colored with Copics. Cindy's challenge theme was to create a shabby chic card. Not sure how chic this one is but the distressing, sponging, splatters, twine and wood background fit the shabby part of it! I did add some subtle sparkle by using a clear Wink of Stella brush marker over the centers of the flowers! :-)
Designer papers are from the 6x6 Vintage Bliss pad by Simple Stories. I used stitched circle and square dies by Lil' Inker Designs and the flags are Die-Namics by My Favorite Things. The card size is 5 1/2" square which is larger than normal for me, so will need to scale the image down a bit next time. Thanks so much for stopping by...

Oh that’s pretty Wanda! The perfect country-fied papers to give it that vintage shabby appeal! Thanks for playing along with us at Power Poppy!
I saw your card on the Power Poppy blog today and just had to visit and read about it! It's gorgeous, Wanda, and you sure do shabby chic well! I love the rustic papers and distressing, and what a perfect image to use....beautifully colored! Hugs, sweet friend!
Fabulously shabby in a rustic kind of way, and that's my favorite! Looks chic to me -- country chic. Love it! So good to see it in our challenge at Power Poppy, Wanda!
Wanda this is country sweet! The fenced backing is perfect with these blooms. I like the staples added to the fish tags, so fun. Thanks for playing in our Chic and Shabby challenge this month.
