Good Morning! ... Ooh I'm mega excited today as it's my first DT card with
this week it's Team A's turn and our theme is....
'Distressing'
so we would like you to get your distressing tools, inks etc. out on your creations... it doesn't have to be a card as long as you follow the theme of distressing...
We are sponsored this week by the wonderful Lili of the Valley
and I have used one of their new pre-coloured Toppers from the Coloured Art Pads
and this wonderful image is from Art Pad 1 - Vintage Boys
isn't the image adorable! ... I thought this cute wee boy and his doggie would be perfect for a Birthday Card for my Dad... it's his birthday at end of July. My dad loves anything vintage and nostalgic and so these Prima - Almanac papers are perfect... so many wonderful little tags and old adverts etc. with this pad... I love it!!
the lovely Brass Embellishment was a gift from lovely Ira - thanks so much hun...I've added a little clock with bird from the papers and it just seems perfect for this card! :-)
I've used a Tim Holtz Distressing Tool and then Tea Dye Distress Ink on all the edges... I really enjoyed making this card! I'm not very good at distressing but I'm quite pleased with how this came out!
