A Layered, Shabby Card !!

Hi bloggy pals,
I have a card to share today which I have created for this week's Cheery Lynn Designs challenge where the theme is 'Sweethearts'. For my card, this time I decided to play with some texture and layering so I created the background of my card using patterned papers from Kaisercraft and Graphic 45. These papers are so gorgeous!! I had a tough time cutting into them. Here's a look at what I've created :


To add some texture to my card, I die cut some corrugated cardboard paper from my heart dies and added some Gesso and Picket Fence Distress Spray Stain on it and die cut another scalloped heart from a watercolored paper and colored it lightly using Worn Lipstick Distress Stain. I added a few drops of the Heidi Swapp Gold Lame Color Shine mist. I even misted the upper half of the card using it.
The flowers are made from the Tea Rose Medium die by Cheery Lynn and colored using Worn Lipstick Distress Stain again and I painted Picket fence Distress Spray on the flowers using a brush! The leaves are also from this die and colored using Evergreen Bough and Mowed Lawn Distress Stains . The foliage was made using Tropical Flourish die by Cheery Lynn and layered the Sophie's heart Mini Doily die cut behind my hearts. The tiny flowers are die cut from the BAF Embellishments #3 die set by Cheery Lynn to which I have added some pollens.
