Vintage, Texture & Flowers

That is the theme for the lastest challenge @ Dragons Dream TIO #145.

So I started with texture by using for the first time Grunge Paste from Paperartsy, thru a stencil.  It works really well and dry pretty quickly.
 Then I used various Fresco Paints to get the colour I wanted.  there was alot of putting on and taking off.  I used Treasure gold Ruby to high light some of the areas.
I stamped my image onto tissue paper and reversed it.  This is one from Indigo Blu.  Stamped another image on card and decoupaged the flowers to her head.  Added some paper flower and sparkle.  Highlighted some area in white pen and added ribbon to the top and bottom, and voila!.
