Our lovely Sue would like to see Shabby Chic/Vintage. So it can be either or a touch of both. I have to say this was my First attempt too, so don't be afraid to join in and try something new if you have never done Shabby before.
I am not sure I have totally cracked it, but I had fun and thats what Crafting is all about.
The Prize this week is from the Super ..
Crafty Emmas store
the lucky winner will win £10.00 (excluding P&P)to spend in store on anything you wish :))
Hope you will all pop over and join in the challenge this week, we are always inspired by the amazing cards we see.
Please don't forget to take a peek at the DT cards and leave my lovely sisters some love.
Well onto my card, and as I have already told you this was my first ever attempt at Shabby Chic and not altogether sure it was shabby enough ...lol so come on and inspire me!
Recipe .....I made my Rose from gauze (bandage)..tee hee! postcard stamps were Papermania Urban
added text to the postcards from the same stamp range.
My paper was daughters, will ask her details of that.
Butterfly ..Memory Box..Vivienne
