Shabby chic

At Penny Black Saturday Challenge is Shabby Chic this week which to me is just a posh way of saying distressing and we all know how I love that.
So I inked every thing in sight well except the cream lace, yes even the ribbon got touch of distress ink so it would look so bright. The papers are My Mind Eye and funky flowers with the doo hickey swirl to decorate. I love this fab PB stamps it works for so many events but don't know whats happen to puss cos he is looking a bit wishy washy.
Do hope you can join us this week and don't forget to check the amazing creations by the DT.

Mr Motivatior was missing yesterday didn't feel like making a card so I went through some of my Cross-Stitch mags that I've kept for years for the charts inside but now I've taken out the ones I want to keep and put them in plastic wallets in a binders but there still a couple of piles yet to go through.
