Our new Reader challenge has just started over at the Scrapmagasinet DT blog and this challenge we are asking you to shabby up your cards. Don't forget that each challenge we have a great prize for one lucky player! Be sure to pop over to the blog to see the gorgeous creations from the team.For my card today I have used this beautiful image Dans sett. She is coloured with Prismacolor pencils with sansodor and paper stumps for blending. I have added a little stickles to the edge of her dress and some tiny pearls to her waist band.
The sentiment is K&Co and was from a huge selection of sentiments and letterings which I purchased from QVC last year. I have given my card an aged feel by using VersaMagic Jumbo Java chalk ink on the edges of my paper, leaves and image. I also used my Heidi Swapp edge distresser on the papers. This effect can easily be achieved with scissors or a craft knife. The pretty butterfly paper is by Laura Ashley. The flowers are Prima Hydrangea and the leaves cut from L-Em Leaf punch.
Before I go I would like to thank Clare and Alex for the above award which I received earlier in the week. Thanks for making me smile! Also don't forget that there is still time to enter the Scrapmagasinet blog candy!
