ANYTHING GOES AT THE OUTLAWZ GREETING CARD CHALLENGE

Now who doesn't love an ANYTHING GOES challenge?! 

Here's an antique style card I was working on over the weekend, and I got to finish it off this morning:


The main image is from Graphic 45 :

The rest of my card is made up of scraps and offcuts lying around on my very messy craft table:

I created my own background using solid pink CS and misting over a chippie chicken wire cut:
(Can you see the fussy cut image with the inked edges?)

There is an offcut of lace sewn on, and embellished with sewn on pearl beads:

The flowers are cut from offcuts... 2 from shiny paper, with Copics colouring, and 1 from scrap of patterned DP. They have pearl bead flower centres.

I have also used:
pink satin ribbon and bow
washi tape
flat back pearls
peel off sentiment
