vacation USA

This is my second week as guest designer at Dottie's World. The theme this week is 'to see some kind of fabric incorporated in the card or item, it could be felt, ribbon, lace, cotton etc and of course a Charmed download'.

Here is my card: All patterned papers are Cosmo Cricket ~ Halfway Cafe. You can see a bit of curling and distressing of the papers, as I wanted to emphasise the aged look and give the card a kind of Wild West theme.

I have used little ribbon stars to meet the conditions of the challenge and I distressed these with Tim Holtz ~ Distress Inks.

The blocks on which the letters are sitting are pieces of grungeboard which I have distressed with crackle paints and distress inks.

I also did the same to the chipboard letters. I had to play around with the inks quite a bit until I got the colours that I wanted. So quite a few different colours have gone into the mix to achieve the final outcome.

The image is Dottie's World ~ Holly in the USA. I coloured her up with my copics.

Thank you for looking.
