First of all, my apologies for publishing my post a couple of hours late.  I have been having problems with Blogger when I try to do scheduled posts.  I have checked and rechecked the time setting and scheduled post time, and I have no idea what is wrong.  I was at a Girl Scout event all afternoon with no Internet access, and I couldn't check if it had gone through as a scheduled post.  Sorry!

I was having a really hard time with these 2 patterned papers from Basic Grey's "Euphoria" collection.  I don't know if it was the color combinations or the amount of contrast, but they were really challenging for me to use.  So, I decided to alter them by sponging on some Vintage Photo Distress Ink.  Here's what my papers looked like before I sponged them:

Here's my card combining the newly altered papers, and one of the newer ODBD stamps from the "Chalkboard" series. 

Card supplies:
Stamps:  ODBD "Chalkboard Amazing Grace"
Ink:  Vintage Photo Distress Ink
Papers:  Brown, dps from Basic Grey Euphoria
Other:  Prima flower (originally cream colored), SU! Purely Pomegranate (to dye flower), MS leaf punch, Sizzix leaves die, sponge
Card size:  6" square

Here's the card with the before papers (there were 2 sheets of each print in the 6 x 6 pad, so guess what will soon be happening to those other 2 sheets of dp!)

Happy Anniversary, Kelley!

Thanks for stopping by!  I hope you enjoyed my creation.
Blessings,
Sarah
