Penny Black stamp
I have created the background using distress ink, glimmer mist and then my favourite Penny Black stamp 2642K daisy pattern. I found some matching ric rac which I glued down the side, cut 2 ovals with nesties, the bigger obe is embossed with Swiss dots folder, added some matching flowers trimmed with pearls, stamped friend in the smaller oval, then added Kindy Glitz to the daisys and around the ovals.

How distressing!!
I have had a lovely messy time at clas, learning how to use Tim Holtz distress inks. I made several backgrounds, but rather liked the colour combination of the one. The image is stamped in black, and I have layered it onto some pretty green vellum that I have had for a long time. I also used it to punch out 2 scallop circles to make the flower. I folded it just off centre and attached it to the corner, finished off with a shiny star.. I can enter the following challenges
