Tilda With Cat Roses on Paper #34 - Punch It

I am entering my card into the Roses On Paper Challenge #34 - Punch It.

I used a sketch for my layout. The sketch is from an incredible 13-year-old artist named Hanna. Check out her blog; it is fantastic!

I turned the sketch over because it worked better with my image. Here is my card...


Stamp: Tilda With Cat
Paper: DCWV (Pet Collection and Textured Cardstock, Chocolate Chip (SU!)
Ink: Staz-On, Distress Ink
Accessories: Prima's, Stampin' Up! brads, charm, chain, MS Branch Punch, scallop punch (SU!), sewing machine

I have still been playing with the distress ink water coloring. I really like the way Tilda turned out in this card. I wanted to make it special, so i did a lot of stitching with matching blue thread.

I used part of a chain to hang my charm. I used my Scallop Edge Border Punch to punch around the edges of the card.

Thanks for visiting. Have a great day!
