Embossed a piece of grey cardstock then used a die to cut out a flower pattern.

Went around the paper with a distressing tool.
Then put distress ink around the image, card, vines and on the embossed paper.

Used a paper crimper on a piece of red cardstock and taped it behind the grey.

Taped the papers together and taped the image onto the card.
