A Little Distressed ......


I'm referring to the card here, not me!!
The image I've used on this card is Maria from The Greeting Farm Role Call set and she's been coloured with Promarkers. The background was made by running some Coredinations Whitewash Card through my Cuttlebug with a floral embossing folder and then sanding it to bring through the pink colour. I've also distressed the edges with Tim Holtz Vintage Photo Ink. The flowers were coloured with Promarkers and the Vintage Photo Ink and I've added some K&Co pearls to the flower centres and down the brown card on the left.
I'm entering this for four challenges:
Quixotic Challenge - challenge 31 'Pretty Pearls'
I Love Promarkers - challenge 22 'Distressing'
One Stop Craft Challenge - challenge 87 'Distressing'
Anyone for Anya - 'Anything Goes'
