The challenge over at color create is blue and white with the extra as vintage. Since it is summer I hate distressing my edges with brown ink (like I always do in the other seasons LOL) so I rubbed them with my scissors and added some crackle paint to them. The cracks were not so obvious so I HAD to rub on a little distress ink. I think it still gives it a good vintage look. I also added some lace and pearls in there for good measure.This is another card I plan to put images and such in so I followed Camilla's tutorial here on how to make this ~ love the way it turned out!
(Thanks Camilla)
