Embellished with decorative trim

There is a color challenge at Embellish this week. with the added challenge of using decorative trim. I love the colors & the inspiration photo is lovely. Here's my take:

PTI cardstock- spring moss? chartreuse? I stamped images from Life in versamark, spring moss, chai, fresh snow & SU! old olive. I distressed the focal panel & then layered it onto the same color cardstock base. There's an avacado strip on the left side of the focal panel.


The flower I made using fabric & spellbinders. The button is die cut from a coaster & debossed with a PTI text plate. I inked it with old olive & chai.


The trim is May Arts crochet & satin leaves....


Here's the inspiration:


Thanks so much for stopping by- I'd love to hear what you think! (and for the record, blogger is adding wonky spaces to my posts- it's not me!!)
