Inspiration for Crafter's Corner #10!

Hello everyone,
Today being the first of the month there's a new challenge up at the Crafter's Corner blog and this time our theme is to make a 'Thank you' card and it is hosted by the very talented and creative Sindhu!...So do check the blog for some awesome inspiration parade :)...In the meantime,here is what I have cooked up for my inspiration :    

And here's a side view for it :  
                                                             
             So as you can see I have decided to play with my distress stains again and I have colored the flowers and the punched laces using them and have used some distress inks to highlight the flower as well...The centre large flower I have made using the Cheery lynn sunflower die....I had been eyeing this die for quite some time and when I won a $20 gift certificate ,this was the first purchase I made using it....But for those of you who are interested in buying this, Crafter's Corner also has it...You can check it out HERE

    Such a beautiful flower there Hussena. I don't know of any blue flower that looks even remotely that good! :) And such a pretty colour combination. Lady, you ought to quill a fairy tale scene. I think, your colour sense belongs there, ethereal and unquestionably pretty :)
