Melon Mambo Flower

It's a beautiful morning on the great Okanagan this morning.  I should be outside in the yard, but instead I'm inside crafting.  I think some days my crafting rules my life.  Today’s card is for this week’s CR84FN colour challenge: gray, cream and bright pink.  I love to distress everything, so I have naturally done that with this card. 

Stamp: Can't remember the name of this set, but it was a hostess set at one time.
Paper: Stampin' Up! - Basic Gray, Very Vanilla, Melon Mambo patterned paper.
Ink: Melon Mambo
Accessories: Ivory rustic twine thanks to endlessinkabilities
                     Button thanks to mariiam

Until next time.
