Today I thought I'd have a go at something I've not really tried before. I've seen so many cards online using the distressed look and have never had the nerve to give it a try....till now! It was actually easier than I thought in the end. I marked my papers up and then lined them up on my paper cutter. Then, instead of cutting with the blade I tore them along the edge of the trimmer. I then inked the edges with a pink inkpad. I think in hindsight the pink is a little too bold for this creation but as my craft supplies are not extensive I have to make use of what I have :).
The stamp I've chosen was one I found online (sorry, can't remember where though now as I have quite a few!). I ordered a sample pack of papers from Ebay a couple of days and I chose one of these as the colour theme for the whole card. Now, the papers I thought I'd ordered were from Dovecrafts Eastern Promise pack but after looking again online they look nothing like the picture! Therefore, don't take my word as gospel as they could be something completely different :).
I've used Bazzill card for a couple of the layers and also lilac dotty paper from Dovecrafts Back to Basics. The sentiment was found online
here. Paper flowers were by Fizzy Moon. I've finished the digi stamp with Promarkers and finished the fairy's wings and hair with a little silver glitter glue.
I would like to enter this card in the following challenges:
