CD Sunday Challenge



The CD Sunday challenge this week is 'Shabby Chic'.  I've used Joanna Sheens ATC assistant for the image and the bp is from another of Joanna's cd's (just wish I could remember which one - it's half a sheet left from another make). In real life the colours are a real good match but on screen somehow they don't go so well. You'll just have to take my word for it I'm afraid. I  'roughed up' the edges of the bp with a craft knife and edged it with Old Paper Distress Ink and also inked the ticket stamp from Crafty Ann with the same ink.
The piece of MS punched border I inked with Worn Lipstick and then just added a few pearls and a touch of ribbon.
Thanks very much for coming to visit.

Beryl, You are absolutely right! This image and the companion you showed me are just wonderful. Were we born at the wrong time? Should we be the lady in lace with the rose hat being courted by a handsome "gentle man" who knows what a lady really wants? Hummm! Guess we will never know. You did a marvelous job on coloring the image and I think you worry too much about it being just so. It is a lovely card.

Hugs and blessings, Martha
