Shabby Chic Friday

See I can do shabby and distressing when I put my mind to it. I blow off the dust on my Tim Holtz distressing tool and distress every bit of card stock so I can enter my card in this weeks A Spoon Full of Sugar Challenge. 
The papers are Prima Madeline which I think it possible the best pad of the few I've brought lately. The lace is already gathered and brought it off E-bay, would be my card if there was a bit of ribbon somewhere. The flowers are from Wild Orchid but I even distress them would some ink.
My image is a Sarah Kay  from Stampavie but I forgot to use a  clean wet paper stump over her eyes and mouth to clean off any coloured pencil, so may have to retake the pic.

Ganz phantastisch sehen die in der 3D-Technik aufgebrachten Blumen auf dem Motivausschnitt aus! Auch die Designpapiere sind wieder wunderschön. Ich bin begeistert!

Jo said...

Debby, these are gorgeous, I just love the Clean and Simple set that you have made, don't look too simple to me though!!! They are so elegant. Can I ask you a question I hope you don't mind, what colouring medium do you use for your Penny Black images? I think I am a bit heavy handed with the Copics, I have tried inks and that is a no go too, I manage to splodge them!!! Any tips please? Hugs Jo x
