Charisma Distressed Challenge

Tis the 5th of December....only 20 more days!  Wow!  I'm sure some of you are on top of things and all ready for the big day....I'm not in that number!  I'm thinking that I might best start a list....checking it twice...or more.

I'm just about finished with my Christmas cards, only to find that I needed a few more, so here goes with another one.  This is my DT card for this week's challenge at Charisma Cardz, where the theme is DISTRESSED


Lots of distress ink on this one, and I've even torn the papers.  Quite the vintage feel, especially when you take the photo in the evening without natural lighting.  I had a play with my copics and a sponsor's image, cutting and then matting with a couple of die cuts.  Although the papers are rather muted, I used a bright turquoise for the image and embellishments.  Something just a little bit different.

Supplies used:
Time for Tea image - Catching Snowflakes
Papers from Melissa Frances - Home for the Holidays collection
Spellbinders die - Inverted Scalloped Circles
Cheery Lynn die - Ankara Lace
