Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge week 87

It's the lovely Mel's turn to set this week's Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge, and her theme is to include a quote.

I decided to make the quote the focal point of my card and do something a little different.
I made the paper using distress inks (Secret Crafter). I swiped wild honey, barn door and aged mahogony across my mat, spritzed them and then rubbed my cardstock into it. I gave it a quick spritz with walnut gold glimmer mist and left it to dry. I stamped both the sentimen and border in aged mahogony, then added the ribbon and flowers.
