Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge (FTTC88

Another fun challenge at Flourishes Timeless Tuesday...This time it will be Silke Ledlow, who is hosting this week's challenge.  I love all her work!  Anyways, the rule for this week is to ink and distress the edges of the card entry to add dimension and texture.

Here's my take:

 I want an unusual "poinsettia's", so opted for brown, blue and copper color combo.
PAPER: Flair, DCWV and American Crafy
STAMPS: Flourishes (Poinsettia's & Boxwood; Winter Bouquet for Sentiments)
INKPADS: Memento Tuxedo Black, CTMH Indian Corn Blue, TH Distressed Inkpads Rusty Hinge
COLORING: Copic markers
TOOLS: Cuttlebug machine, Spellbinder dies (Fleur de Lis & Blossom), EK Paper shaper punch, PC paper trimmer, ATG and TH distressed tool
EMBELLISH: Glittered ribbon, Dress-Up Buttons (gold snowflake and fancy frame) and Basic Grey half pearls
