Hi everyone and happy Wednesday :)
We have a new challenge starting as of today at Crafts and Me Challenges.This week the amazingly talented Angela is hosting the challenge and she chose
Distress/Vintage
Ohhhh... this is just perfect for me.. I soooo love distressing :-)
I used the adorable 'Rachel Anderson's Lily of the Valley' stamp available at Crafts and Me
I really did a LOT of distressing on this card ;-)
Not only did I distress all the paper edges (the design paper is from the digi paper pack called 'drip-drop {the papers}' by Joyful Heart Designs available at The Digichick). But I also used Gesso and Distress inks to distress the papers further more, and also the paper flowers and even the twine :)

The sentiment is from the new 'Everyday Mini Postage Stamps' set by Whimsy Stamps. I stamped the 'magical' sentiment, cut out the inner rectangle and then die cut a piece of black cardstock using the coordinating 'Mini Postage Stamp Die' by Whimsy Stamps
