I had the punch out because I am indexing and cataloging them along with all my brads, eyelets, inks, etc. I used this punch a few weeks ago and it really layers nice. All scraps except for the background card. I used the red distress ink for the edges and almost didn't because I thought it would be too too much. But I then ran the burlap pad over that and got this color. And to add to it, I smooshed the weathered wood in a few spots too.
I distressed all the edges of every layer. For the middle of the flower, I used a large brad in darkish brown topped with a punched out circle to get it to pop off the page a bit. I used Acrylic Accents on top of it and if you look really close, you will see my finger print. I thought it was dry-but it wasn't. I debated on ribbon to finish it but there were two small golden brads just staring at me, so had to use them or lose them.

I love this card. The elements are gorgeous and the colours are perfect!
