Digi Choosday - Shabby Chic

-
Hello everyone!  Happy Tuesday!  It's time for a new challenge over at Digi Choosday and this time our challenge is Shabby Chic.

OK so here's another challenge that I dreaded... I'm not good in the genre challenges lol I don't do a certain style... so shabby chic is not easy for me!  But then I came across the awesome image Federicka - Libby Carefree and that was the starting point!!!!  

I used the fabulous papers the set Classic hearts paper and some from Rose Papers.  

I used my curved rectangles from Spellbinder.  I put a little tag for the sentiment done with my magnolia memory tag and I added some ribbon to it!  I added some starfoam stickers all around the edge as well as for the sentiment.  I used some vintage lace and a ribbon flower from my stash.

Here's a closer look at the digi that I colored with my copics.  I used some aged mahogany distress ink all around it.
To make this card I followed the following sketch:
