The weeks are flying by at the moment, but I'm glad I managed a card for this week's Fab 'n Funky challenge. This week's challenge is DISTRESS, I've used both a distressing tool and using ink to distress the papers. We are sponsored by Lacy Sunshine and the girls from the DT received some lovely images to work with. I decided to make a Christmas card, as the end of the year seems to be approaching so far right now and I need quite a lot of cards still!
Materials:
* Lacy Sunshine Curly Sue's Victorian Christmas digi, coloured with Promarkers & Spectrum Noirs
* First Edition Up Up & Away & Authentique Remembrance DPs
* Forest Moss & Victorian Velvet Distress Ink & Distessing Tool
* Joy Craft Flower Heart punch (I use it for making snowflakes)
* Marianne Design Letters and More Backgrounds & Eline's Winterhuis Jingle Bells Stamp Sets
* Scraps, Sentiment Banner and Pearls from stash
Challenges:
* Addicted to Stamps (Christmas is Coming)
* Crealing (Swirls) On the Paper
* Color Me Creative Classroom (Anything Goes)
* One Stitch at a Time (Anything Goes)
* Creative Fingers (Anything Goes plus Optional Twist: Girls Just Wanna Have Fun)
* Creative Craft Challenges (Anything Goes)
* LadyBug Crafts (Anything Goes)
* Polka Doodles (Anything Goes)
* Crafty Bloggers Network (Anything Goes)
* Art Impressions (Anything Goes)
Ciska, I love Victoriana and you have achieved the look so beautifully in this Christmas card. Your image is so cute and not one that I would have thought of for a Victorian look so your achievement is most impressive to me. Good luck in our challenge this week. Ingrid xx (OSAAT Team)
