♥ A Monochromatic Shabby Chic Card ♥

Hi everyone! Just stopping in to share a card I made for 2 awesome challenge blogs. The Simon Says Stamp and Show Challenge Blog and the Let's Get Shabby Challenge Blog. Both of their challenges this week is to make a card using only one color. So FUN and challenging!

I used some gorgeous papers by Prima from their Printery line. I also used some Prima lace trim, punched butterflies, Liquid Pearls, lace, seam binding, a chipboard heart, paint, a button, glitter and the "beautiful" is from the Princess Blush stamp set by My Mind's Eye.

I hope you all have a "beautiful" day! Thanks for stopping by my little blog! I really appreciate it!

Hugs and lottsa love...

♥ Toile and Ticking...French and Shabby ♥

The current challenge at the Let's Get Shabby Challenge Blog is to use Toile and Ticking on your card. Well, I didn't have any real good ticking paper other than this Webster's Pages striped paper. But I think it's just as good. ;) You should see what the DT created! Just beautiful!

I also used lace and Prima trim, some seam binding, a charm, chipboard heart which I painted white, distressed it a bit and then added some glitter to it. I also used a Melissa Frances keyhole and rub-on transfer, punched butterfly, Liquid Pearls and some Pink Paislee Crystals on a chain. And that beautiful French Label is from The Graphics Fairy.

And lastly, I went back to that Consignment Shop today. I picked up a beautiful half moon shaped table for my foyer, an old birdcage just perfect for my "Grandma's Attic" space (see 2 posts down) and this gorgeous stool! Can you believe it was only $25?! It's perfect for inside my closet for when I put on stockings, shoes, etc.

Have a wonderful nighty night!!
