This week Linda's
Studio L3 challenge is one of my favourite pages from THE book - page 65. It won't take too much to work out what the challenge is so I won't say any more!
Here is my card - it's an 8x8 inch card, with a piece of Tim's Vintage Shabby stack, the challenge items and some stamping.
I used some music paper and also an old piece of Tim's paper with pen nibs on (it's from a Design Originals pack from 2005 according to the date on the edge of the paper, never before used.....) on the GP, cut these through the tattered florals die, and I also had a grunge flower made up with some of Wendy V's flower stamps.
I kept the stamping to walnut stain to co-ordinate with the papers and blended some broken china DI over the base card. Finally just a touch of distress stickles here and there.
There are some amazing prizes up for grabs this week - so don't bother entering!!

Wow! Fantastic colours & design on your beautiful card Helen! Love it! x
I love the colors of your flowers! "Grunge" isn't natural for me, although I have grown to appreciate it because of Tim's techniques. I still prefer 'pretty'....and you have created a project that's pretty. :-)
Wow you made 3 flowers and they are all gorgeous! I am not good at these so will be lucky if 1 turns out good.
Love that last comment Helen :P That pen nib flower is totally gorgeous and so unusual - love it! You should do a bouquet with all these different designs and pop them in a vase :)
Really nice, very pretty colors.
Its lovely Helen and such pretty colors too!
The colours are lovely Helen and as for that tattered floral, I'm getting addicted to mine as well.

Good morning Helen, this is such a pretty card. I am lovin the colors you chose. And I love your blog... Thnx for the wonderful inspiration.

Wow! Great job on the CCC technique, Helen! Those flowers are gorgeous, and it's brilliant the way you showed a variety of ways to make them. The entire card is beautiful-- I love that background paper and the text stamps you chose, and the color pallet is lovely. That little pop of orange ties the ticket and flowers together perfectly. Well done!!!
