Cameo Lady

Card Supplies

Paper:  Tan and Green Carstock
Stamp:  Unity Toile
Inks: Distress - Bundled Sage, Barn Door, Scattered Straw
Dies:  Spellbinder Elegant Oval; Marianne Cameo
Ribbon: May Arts Lace
Bling:  jewel center from some a flower, feathers, feather boa, pearls
Other: Sakura 3D Crystal Lacquer

 Challenge #17 at Joan's Garden (http://www.atjoansgardens.com/) directed us to create a vintage  card using green and tan colors (add an accent color) upon a stamped background.  Some while ago I acquired the Toile background stamp and have been waiting for the "perfect" opportunity to use it on a card.  Once I'd stamped it and distressed the image,    the card just "fell together" using die cuts and bits of stuff I had lying around.  Does it look like a card that grandmother saved?
