Morning everyone. It is a miserable, cold & rainy day here in Dundee today. Perfect for being inside and being crafty. I got 2 parcels in the post yesterday, one from my very sweet friend Paola, and the other my birthday parcel from 7Kids. So needless to say I have loads of new stamps & images to create with. Wonderful!!
The card I am posting today, actually qualifies for 3 challenges!! The layout is based on the Friday Sketch over at Prairie Paper & Ink, and as is the norm it is a lovely sketch. I am also going to post this card over at the Simon Says & Magnolia Sites, both of them had Distressing as their challenges for the week. I used Tim Holtz distress ink to age & distress the background of the card, and I also inked the edges of the beige cuttlebugged piece on the card. I used one of the images Paola so generously stamped for me.
Here is the sketch:
And my card & close-up:
Hope you are all cozy, warm & being crafty!
