Compendium of Curiosities Challenge- week 13


Week 13 at L3 Studio. The Compendium of Curiosities Challenge continues. This week its about the flowers. I used a variety of papers all distressed with vintage photo ink and the Sizzix THA tattered flowers die. My flower brads were painted with black alcohol ink. The background was made using SU wheel Very Vintage and clear embossing powder. It and the paper tape were distressed with vintage photo ink. Not sure where the words came from. Thank you for looking! Come and join in the fun!
