A card using The Paper Shelter image called

Isn't this just the sweetest, most peaceful image you ever saw!!!
I printed out the Ready to use composition and the colored image.  Fussy cut the image.  On the composition printout I added TH weathered wood DI using a sponge applicator to give shadow effect.  Next I added lacy ribbon and then used foam tape to adhere image in place.  Finished by adding  buttons and thread to bows and VD Kiwi pearl centers to flowers!!
Shows the dimension as well as the VD flower centers :)
