Mark's Finest Papers goes Shabby Chic at Chocolate Crafts and Bears, Oh My! This card was from some awesome inspiration at "Pinterest". I love shabby chic and this was my attempt at this beautiful style. When I saw this image I knew it would be perfect for what I had in mind. To determine how I was going to color my image, I researched owls and came up with the beautiful barn owl. The following products were used in the card:Spellbinders- Holly Motif and Accent Dies, Large Round and Large Scalloped Nestabilities
Martha Stewart- Holly Punch Around the Page for the inside of the Card, Holly Punch
Cuddlebug- Holly Embossing Folder
Sheer Ribbon, Rhinestones, Glitter, Stickles, Tim Holtz distressing tool, Tea Dye and Sage Green distressing ink, Bridal Lace
This is the inside of my card. I just repeated images and punches and die cuts to accent the front of the card. Thank you so much for stopping by today. We have an exciting week at Mark's Finest Papers with our beautiful projects for the new release. I hope you will join me here again tomorrow for what I have to show you. You don't want to miss it.
