Deep Ocean Challenges DT Card

Hi everyone how are you all?
I'm back with my DT card for Deep Ocean challenges, is it really 2 weeks since the last challenge? Wow is it me or are these weeks flying by..........
Anyhoo's our new challenge this fortnight is super duper, easy peasy, seriously peeps.........
DISTRESSING
........see now how easy is that!!! So get your inks, your scissors, your Tim Holtz tools or whatever else you use & distress your stuff ;0)
I have duffed up the edges of my papers with a' Distresser Tool' & inked them with Pumice Stone distress ink & as always I've machine stitched them. This is just a topper I'm keeping in my craft room on display as inspiration.

The Doily is from my stash, I cut it in half, inked the edges lightly & layered them between paper layers, so it looks like there are 2 doilies on there.

I have used one of my favourite laces, tbh I need more, tbh I need a shopping trip very soon at LLC, it feels so long since I did shopping there lol. Honestly........instead I've been spending the money on our home, garden & of course my family <3 a="" all="" also="" essentials="" few="" get="" had="" i="" p="" soon="" tell="" to="" ve="" very="" will="" you="">

The image is from Aurora Wings which I won. This one is called 'Waterlily Fairy - Lotus' & I coloured her up ages ago, nearly as soon as I got her so cant remember all the copic colours, but I will tell you the ones I remember or know by sight lol.
E11, E21, E00, E000, R20 - Skin
B97, B95, B91, B00 - Eyes
V99, V95, V93, V91, V00 - Flowers
E40'S maybe for the hair.
Sorry I dont remember more than that :0( I have to say I really enjoyed colouring this one & it may be my favourite by Aurora Wings, its also why I went with one of my favourite colour combo's ;0)

I also went with my favourite paper company Maja Designs, & the top layer is LOTV 'Timeless Victorian' which have beautiful lilac's in it. The 'Key' charm & the 'Bark Heart' I have also added white gesso to them.

Items used.................
All these above products from Live & Love Crafts

Such a lovely card done with this gorgeous stamp! Fabulous design and embellishments.
Thank you for your lovely comment on my blog. I'm feeling a lot better. Just a few more things have to heal and I'll be back to my cards. It hasn't helped that I also have progressive MS which has been making it's presence known. I'm hoping to have a trip on Saturday to Lili of the Valley in Leeds if I'm well enough. Got my fingers and toes crossed! Debra x
