This was a very fun card to make with a lot of stamps and products! First, I worked on the background. I sponged pink, green and brown distress inks over a stencil, then immediately I applied whipped spackle over top. It looks white at first, but then the distress inks mix in and the spackle becomes more opaque and it is pretty when it dries.

The pink flower was kissed with a script stamp, then I masked that flower and stamped over top with the fern. I thought that was such a pretty combo. I did sponge ink on the oval die cut to make it look more shabby.
I finished off the card with some pretty lace and a vellum butterfly. This card is a bit unusual for me, but I really like it and had fun making it.

I love the idea of the distress inks mixing their own colour through the spackle, it looks like such a fun technique and you have made the most beautiful card!
This card is really pretty. I like the look of the colour which has seeped into the spackle!
