Just Magnolia week 16 - Distressing

We have another nice easy challenge on Just Magnolia this week, Distressing. I found another image that I have had for ages and never got round to inking up and think it's perfect for a distressed look. Plus it was so easy to colour, must remember this one for quick cards.

I am STILL using these MME papers, goodness they sure are lasting a while lol. I have used Mina's idea of layering the punched papers - it's so pretty and I will def be using this style again so thanks for sharing sweetie.

I splashed out and used one of the hat pins that I got from Tab's shop - love them babe and am so glad I got loads!!! Here's a close of of the pin - isn't it just gorgeous!!

Tools: Cuttlebug vintage corner die, EK Success Fleur de Lys punch, Nestabilities labels 4, McGill Pine punch
Embellies: Pearls, Hat Pin, Roses

    Just beautiful Bev. The pin is gorgeous, I probably would be tempted to keep them just to look at. I'm like that with my cherry/strawberry charms I got from the hobby house stand at Donaster Stamp Magic, they're just too pretty! Love the MME paper as well, it just goes on forever doesn't it!
    Have a great weekend!
