Shabby Chic

I thought I wouldn't be able to post this week but I managed to get a card made for 3 challenges: the sketch is from Freshly Made Sketches, the colors are from ColourQ and the Shabby Chic theme is from Our Creative Corner.  I stamped the card base using the same color ink as the CS with a few touches of the Bashful Blue.  I also made the oval paper and gave the edges a distressed look.  This is not my style but I wanted to challenge myself and create a Shabby Chic card. Mmaybe it's a little plain but I like it.  Hope you will too.  Enjoy!
