My friend June suggested I try this blog challenge out. It is The Pink Elephant Challenge #9: Recipe Challenge---Use stamps, embossing and punches. I just remembered it this morning. So, ran downstairs to my craft studio (a bit of a stretch to call it that but I like the sound of it :)
and made up this card in about 15 minutes.
Recipe: Deja View Blue Raspberry Paisley dp
brown, light blue and white cs/white card
Weathered Wood and Vintage Photo distress inks
SU! Cute and Curly stamp set and coordinating punch
Sizzix Paislies texture plate for embossing w/CB
Martha Stewart Doily Lace edge punch
brown ribbon/blue brads
I embossed the white panel with the Paislies texture plate---then ran the Weathered Wood distress ink pad over it followed by the Vintage Photo distress ink; double matted this panel.
Cut a panel of the Deja View dp and double matted it. Overlapped these two panels on a white card that I had inked the edges of. Punched border along a white strip of cs with MS Eyelet border punch and then inked with Vintage Photo distress ink pad---used parts of this strip thruout the card. Stamped SU! sentiment w/vintage photo ink and punched out and double matted. Added foam tape to this element for dimension. Added ribbon and brads for detail.

Wow! Fifteen minutes! I love all the distressing. Thanks for creating with us at The Pink Elephant this week! I hope you join us again.
Your distressing looks fabulous on the punched borders - can't believe you did it in 15 minutes - wow amazing .
Glad your friend told you about us at the Pink Elephant and I hope you'll join us again this week.

Gorgeous card! I love what you did with the challenge.
Fabulous! The "no thinking/ just create" cards are sometimes the best....as was the case for you and this card! I LOVE LOVE LOVE it! This might be my fave Deanna card so far :) (Yeah, I know I will have a lot more Deanna faves in the future!)
