ICSketches #20

Another great sketch from Dawn over at ICSketches this week.

I decided to turn the sketch anti-clockwise by 90 degrees and I actually used a C6 card for a change. I don't usually go for this size but I didn't want to lose the image in acres of paper! I tried the distressing again but I'm not that happy with it today - I need more practice (any excuse lol).


My card:-

Stamp - Laura Ashley mounted onto scrap cardboard
Distress Ink Pads - Peeled Paint, Vintage Photo and Spiced Marmalade
Papers - K & Co
Rub On - Melissa Frances
Tim Holtz Distress Stickles
Faux stitching
Other items used:- Cuttlebug Embossing Folder (Swiss Dots)
and Martha Stewart Doily Lace Border Punch


Thanks for looking.
