I have used a paper from Décosse's Dynamite Doodles for the background of this card.  The sentiment is also from Décosse's Dynamite Doodles.  The image is from Clear Dollar Stamps and has been coloured with copic markers and then further enhanced by the addition of various Stickles colours - Orange Peel, Silver and Yellow.

Here is the card that I lifted:

I used an embossing folder to create the background and also the large pennant.  For the pennant, I rubbed the embossing folder with Distress Ink - Wild Honey.  The large rectangle has also been "distressed" with Wild Honey.  The image is from Clear Dollar Stamps and has been coloured with copic markers Y17, G00, YR00.  The circle has been cut from white cardstock using a Spellbinders die.  The ribbon flower has been coloured with copic marker Y17.  I have also added three white pearls.
