Best wishes - Inspired by Nature - Colour Q colour challenge #89

The colours for this week's challenge with Colour Q  are:  Bravo Burgundy, Cajun Craze, Bordering Blue, Basic Gray, and Whisper White.
Bordering blue is a retired colour, but I managed to find a piece of cardstock in that colour - just the right size.

The background of the image was made by sponging (in a random pattern) Basic Gray and Bordering Blue.  Then after the image was stamped I crumpled the paper up to give it a little more character.

Stamps: Inspired by Nature, Vintage Vogue
 Inks: Basic Gray, Bordering Blue, Markers (Cajun Craze, Bravo Burgundy, Basic Gray)
Papers: Whisper White, Cajun Craze, Bordering Blue, Bravo Burgundy
Accessories: Scallop border punch, 1/4" white grosgrain ribbon, rhinestones, Weave texturz plate
