Both of my cards feature the beautiful Rose Silhouette stamp #537-01.....it was stamped on Basic Grey's Sweet Threads dp. The sentiment is also from Rubbernecker and the string of buttons, seam binding, and lace finish it off. 
My Minds Eye Lost and Found dp and Melissa Frances dp were used on this card...sewing and distressing were done around the edges and the sentiment was cut up and popped up with foam dots. Lace, seam binding, twine, and a flower finish it off. 

     **Hop Route**
Thanks for stopping by and joining all the fun!!!

I agree that both cards are so beautiful, Joan! It's always cool to show how images can look in the different color palettes. I love your use of the buttons, your beautiful flower, and how you cut out the sentiment for your second card. I love them both, oh talented one!

Both your cards are beautiful. I love the first one that is so rich in color and decorated with all those buttons. And, the second one in the subtle tones is equally as beautiful. Thanks for sharing your talents.
