Frilly and Funky Challenge

Hi all, just been playing this evening and had a go at the challenge over at Frilly and Funky which is William Morris Style,  they gave you some inspiration pictures and I based mine (loosely I may add lol) on this picture - 

I used a damask stamp using distress inks and then clear

embossed it.  Then I covered the whole tag with faded jeans,

next I used water to highlight the middle of the images

(took away with water).

Then I used stamp n bond embossing powder for the

edges and covered them in ink.

I used a leaf stamp, embossed in gold, coloured with

distress markers then cut out.

The birds where chipboard which I covered in versamark,

embossed in a dark red then added flicks of gold embossing 

powder.

I wish I hadn't of gilded the edges as I feel it was too much, also too many leaves lol.

Right I shall be off, it certainly was a challenge and I have to admit I enjoyed playing this evening :-)

Happy Crafting :-)
