I had fun putting this together. I love vintage and shabby but also love clean and crisp designs. Just a little weird, I guess.
I started using twinmom320's design and went from there. I couldn't stop 'finiggling' with it. I'm pleased with the outcome though. Thanks for the jump start!
My main image was colored with Bordering Blue, Mellow Moss and Summer Sun markers. You can hardly see the Mellow Moss part for the fibers. It was huffed and stamped on Naturals Ivory and then edges torn. I took my Chocolate Chip pastel and a cotton ball (one of my favorite tools) and went over the torn edges. This was layered on a piece of Chocolate Chip. I found fibers in my stock (non-SU) that had these same colors in it and wrapped the bottom. Dimensionals were put on this layer.
Another piece of Naturals Ivory was torn on the side and I used the words in this set to 'strategically' place on the bottom edge so it would like it was on an old piece of torn paper. I used a SAM to get it just where I wanted it. More Chocolate Chip pastel was smudged around this piece. My spiral punch (the first time I used it and won't be my last!) was used on the other side. I took my scissors and roughed up these edges. This piece was layered on another piece of Chocolate Chip. All of these layers were placed on the Mellow Moss base card.
I hope you like it. TFL. Your comments are always appreciated.
