Oh! How Distressed!

Hi everyone!
It's time for the new challenge at
The Crafty Pad!
This weeks challenge theme was chosen by our lovely Helen
We want to see you sand it, ink it,scrunch it, tear it.......the choice is yours!
Here's my DT offering for this week!


It's a Birthday Card for my niece.
The image I have used is The Crafty Pad Designs,
The papers are from the 'First Edition' Hideaway Stack
The colours were just perfect for the challenge at




She's been coloured with Flexmarkers & Promarkers
The edges of the papers were distressed with a pair of scissors,
then inked with Colour Q ink pads.


A side view to let you see the distressed edges.


The circle sentiment was a freebie I think from ages ago,
I added Birthday Wishes to the middle.
 I also dotted about a few self adhesive pearls.


I tied some Funky Fibres around the ribbon bow.


The inside is decorated to match!
Thanks so much for stopping by, don't forget to check out the other DT samples at

play in our challenge. Hope to see you there!
