Best of Flowers - Hydrangea

I simply adore hydrangeas, we have some in our yard that I enjoy every summer. When Stampin' Up! released the Best of Flowers set, I saw the hydrangea and quickly put it in my next order! For the background on this card I used a faux patina finish. It's really pretty simple, emboss then sponge and heat emboss. There's a great tutorial on how to achieve this look here on Splitcoast Stampers.
