I got to this week’s Papertrey Ink challenge a bit earlier this week. The challenge was to do some distressing on the project. It’s not something I do often. In fact, I have a distressing tool which I used for the first time today! I must say it worked very well, although the distressing around all the edges of the patterned papers doesn’t show up particularly well here. I also took the opportunity to use one of my new stamp sets: Mat Stack #2 Collection. It’s filled with very elegant designs for the mat stack and a good addition to my stamp collection.
Quite some time ago, I dyed a lot of seam binding with a variety of mists. I chose the colors for the card based on a piece of the ribbon. I used another piece of the My Mind’s Eye paper from the Mabel collection and one from Basic Grey’s Basic Kraft collection.
This is beautiful, Karen! I love the colors (love brown!) and the design! I didn’t buy the Mat Stack #2 collection, but it does look very elegant.
Essentially, this is another simple design, with beautiful additions! The sentiment stamp is quite lovely and the pearls add an elegant touch.
I love the distressed look of the ribbon – very elegant!

Just love this one,Karen….the distressing just adds that final touch to it….and the seam binding is perfect for the distressed look.
So elegant Karen! I’m dying to know what other colours you dyed your seam binding now too
I love how this is a step away from your usual style, yet your usual style shines through still – it’s recognisably ‘you’, and very beautiful 🙂
How delicate is this … Soft browns and taupe and grey are my favourite all-time colours.
lovely colors.
