Please see the attached screenshot

It's the small and minimal white splots AND the faded textur-ey colours on the petals. This is what I'm trying to achieve and would love to know how to do that.

Do I have to get a vintage paper background and a dust texture on top? I don't quite know how to do it as flawlessly and well executed as the person has in this screenshot.
Your help is highly appreciated thank you!!

    @Wetrivk first - looking at this it appears to be a photograph of an actual screen printed design on fabric - not a Photoshop composite (or else a very convincing one). Most"vintage" paper/textile backgrounds are available from stock sites like Adobe Stock. Texture brushes are widely available as downloads via google searches from sites like Brusheezy or the Adobe Photoshop Brushes page:

      Amazing. Thank you! I am searching for the right brush and this has been very helpful.

      What do you mean when you say that it 'appears to be a photograph of an actual screen printed design on fabric - not a Photoshop composite'?
