Hi! For the second week of ODBD Shining the Light challenging to do sponging, I'm going out of my comfort zone. I've attempted shabby chic before but I think I finally got it this time. Having the perfect paper helps. ;) Here I used ODBD Blushing Rose Paper collection along with some pennant dies. The center panels are from the paper set so there was actually no stamping on this. The banners were made by layering the pennant dies. For added contrast, I sponged the bottom scalloped banners as well as the background layer. Hope you can play along with this week's challenge to do sponging or stenciling!

Accessories: Mulberry Roses and Want2Scrap pearl flourishes
