Beaded Flower
It has been all of six cards since I last used the Large Flower stamp, so I just had to ink it up again! The flower is embossed in white, covered with distress inks (shabby shutters and broken china) and has four layers. The scallops and sentiment were also embossed in white and covered with worn lipstick distress ink. For the card itself I lightly applied shabby shutters and broken china distress inks to white card and splattered water on it. Just did some machine stitching and added some beads to finish.

Thanks to Deirdre's suggestion, I've also entered this into Paperplay's challenge this week, Flowers and Sparkle Galore, paperplaychallenges.blogspot.com/2010/06/10-week-22-flowe...
