Starting with ColourQ #292 - always such amazing color combinations. I also loved the sketch from Freshly Made Sketches #189. My dots & stripes are for Use Your Stuff #186.
I water colored a couple of flowers from Hero Arts Blossom Art and used a sentiment from Hero Arts Many Birthday Messages.
I used an old family photo [1924] with a metal tag from Ranger. The 2 go really good together. I used some crumpled and inked up tissue for my background, and then added edge distressing to the entire card.
Another fun day for me!
Thanks for stopping by~
