Steampunk Fairy

Stamp: Meredith Dillman's "Steampunk Fairy" sheet 5 plate 99

For today's card I used the other half of Meredith Dillman's plate 99. I just love her Steampunk images! I wanted some leather looking flowers, so I punched some flowers out of natural cardstock and stained them with the new Tim Holtz Distress Stain in Vintage Photo. I then used a black pen to draw some detail in and edged the flowers with a darker ink. I bent them slightly by pinching each petal.
