I started out with a Gray card base from SU. I added a Pink panel from Recollections. The script background is from QKR Stampede. I sized it to 4.25" x 5" and trimmed it down once I printed it. I used quite a few different DI to distress it. (Peeled Paint, Rusty Hinge, Broken China, Walnut Stain, Tea Dye) I just kept adding layers of ink until I liked the way it looked. The heart, key and sentiment are from Shelly's Images. I used a BIC marker to color in the heart and key then started layering on the DI. I tied a piece of pink ribbon to the key and slid it through the key hole in the heart. I matted the sentiment on the same pink card stock after inking it with DI Vintage Photo. I like the distressed, vintage look this card has.
Thanks for stopping by to visit. Come back now, ya hear! God bless y'all.
