My attempt at a faux linen-look. Stamped palm tree with basic black onto US Vanilla cardstock. Took 80 grit sandpaper and swiped cardstock a few times in both directions. Sponged creamy caramel over cs to emphasize the scratches. Watercolored, then added other stamped images. 'Frame' border: took more mustard cs & used DTP(direct to paper) technique using basic black, close to cocoa & a touch of ruby red. Mitered corners and mounted on more mustard cs base. Card size is 4.25" x 4.75". Handmade envelope required.

This is one of the most gorgeous cards I have ever seen. I am going to try your technique, but have no hopes that mine will turn out this great...and when it doesn't, I'm going to PM you, ok? TFS!
