And it is! It is very forgiving too. I didn’t have any trouble lining it up or anything, I just stamped away in a general pattern using brown ink. I then distressed the entire panel with tea dye distress ink and a sponge applicator. I also splattered some ink lightly to get some more aging to the panel.
Finally, I added color to the roses and leaves with chalks. I really am so happy with this background and can’t wait to try it with other colors!
I layered a sentiment from Inspirational Phrases set with some fancy die cuts. I put this over some lace that was in my stash and put my very last adhesive pearls underneath. I can’t believe that those are my last pearls, sometimes it seems like you will never use all your embellishments!

This is so gorgeous and it has a vintage look to me. Very well designed.
Hi Heidi! Hope you and yours are well. You've done such a fabulous job on this beautiful card. The roses stamp was a perfect choice for a background. I never think to use chalks, always afraid I can't set them and they will smear. XOXO
Gorgeous! Your June rose shabby chic is a vision - so earthy and the burst of pink/red tones just pops! Lovely!
