Shabby Chic Birthday Card in Turquoise and Beige...

Hello everyone,

Just a super quick post of my latest creation:



I made this card based on the Cardabilities #127 sketch, color palette from Paper Ladybirds Task #52 and layered and raised it up for Creative Craft Cottage and Frilly and Funkie Challenges :)


Lots of foam adhesive and lots of layers were used to create this shabby card...as you can see lots of distressing going on as well...


Shabby bow was hand died with Peacock Feathers DI and the same ink was used to color the handmade rolled flowers...


Even the banner was layered and raised up...

I am entering this card into challenges I previously mentioned, but I'll list them again:

 And I also would like to enter it into Allsorts Challenge Blog Week #320 Add a Banner of Flags
I hope you enjoyed this post..
Have a wonderful day and thanks for stopping by...
