Shabby Chic Greeting Card

This is one of my favorite stamp sets from Stampin Up! called Elements of Style. 

 I made this particular card in honor of Pam who was the Queen for the Day over at SCS for QFTD62.

 I chose  to distress my papers, used twine, and antique looking brads to add to the shabby look.  I actually wish I would have inked or chalked the edges as well--note to self for the next shabby card :0)

 I cut out the bird image and chalked his tummy with brown.

 I used Stampin Up! colors:  Pear Pizzaz, Baja Breeze, and Whisper White.

I used the flourish stamp to stamp the Baja Breeze base as well.

Thanks for looking!
