Okay I saw a bunch of color and viney twines!?!
Started with barnwood paper (I think from MME) and sponged pool party over the gray. Then I die cut a Memory Box die but, only parts of it all the way through the die. So there are some areas popped out and some that are embossed. Rounded the corners and sponged with SU basic gray all around. To add the colors I sponged them on some of the "popped up" pieces and added rhinestones all over. Added a sentiment from Verve and a seam binding bow.
Here's a close up to see all those rhinestones....
