Nice and Natural

Well this is my Tuesday project... I look forward to Moxie Fab Tuesday Trigger every week.. You will not believe the inspiring picture this week... It is so awesome.  I would love for my bedroom to look like this.  Love this look.  So for this challenge I was focused on trying to recreate that wood head board.  I think I got pretty close.  So I just cut some strips out and distressed all the edges and then I wondered how can I create wood knots????? I got a Prima rose and taped it tight all around so it looked like knot it then I put some ink on it.  I tried it out and could not believe that it gave me the affect I was looking for.  I have posted a picture of the before and after..  Well I hope you enjoy my card... and if you want to join in on all the fun HERE is the Link..
