I decided to make a postcard using topaz colours which I've interpreted as orangey browns, as the Out of a Hat Creations challenge of birthstones is running for 2 weeks over the Christmas period.
The background is a piece of core card run through a texture fade embossing folder and then sanded to reveal more of the underneath colour. The fabric piece was created a while ago and if you want to how check back here. The flower from the tattered flowers decorative strip was also cut from the core card and assembled using a brad. A piece of ric rac ribbon was added to finish.

This is a very beautiful piece Sam and I love the way you have done the background card with the sanding down.
