Shabby Chic
The latest DCM challenge calls for interpretations of 'Shabby Chic'. Easy, gather lots of bits and bobs. Hard, try and arrange them artistically on a card.
For me Prima epitomises this particular brief, so with that in mind here is my version.
Lots of flowers, swirls, jewels and raggedy bits.
Not entirely happy with the greeting, but I just couldn't find anything. I am increasingly in need of more little sentiment stamps. I will add them to my 'essentials' wish list. As opposed to the when I win the lottery wish list.
Essentials :
- Large acrylic block at least 6x4 but 5x7 would be better (I bought a new Christmas stamp and now have nothing to put it on).
- Large number stamps.
- Small pointy scissors (mine have fallen apart due to over use!).
- Papermania butterfly punch - the one that punches out the wings but leaves the body attached.
- Small greetings stamps - birthday and Christmas.
- Yet more 12x12 storage.
- Kraft colour 12x12 card.
Fingers crossed that I don't have to rely on Father Christmas for that little lot.
