Welcome to my new followers - my numbers are rising slowly and I'm thrilled :) I hope you all had a great weekend and are enjoying the warmer weather.
My card today is made for the challenge over at 'Stampin' for the Weekend' which is 'Distressed'. Here's what I made ...
I used my favourite 8x8" card blank and covered it with gorgeous Tim Holt paper which has been well and truly distressed around the edges and inked with 'Walnut Stain' distress ink too. I added another couple of layers which were subjected to the same treatment and then added the stamped image which is from Kanban. I paper pieced the skirt using scraps of the text paper and added a couple of little brass wing charms to the back of the bodice. I love the sentiment (which is from Creative Expressions) and this is stamped and embossed. Extra embellishments include a couple of stamped hinges, an organza ribbon bow, some roses (which have also been distressed with the ink), a couple of Doohickey heart swirl dies and some adhesive pearls.
Thank you for all your kind comments on my past posts - I love reading them all, they mean a lot and I always try to return the favour where I can.
Big hugz, Jan xx
