DDTIO Shabby Chic

As usual I've got about half a dozen things started and stuff all over my craftroom, please tell me I'm not the only to do this lol????? I've managed to finish my tag for this weeks challenge at Dragon's Dream Tag it On, the theme is Shabby Chic

I've used stamps from Elusive images and coloured the tag with Distress Inks in Aged Mahogony and Stormy Skies and distressed the edges with black soot DI. I added some white lace, blue ribbon and red ribbon from my ribbon bit box. I'd also been having a play with grungepaper, trying out different stamps to see how they worked. I quite liked this rose (some were total dis-ah-sters!! ) which is made with Aged Mahogany DI and a flower stamp from Elusive Images.

I'm also entering this tag in the following challenges

Sunday Stamper: Song sung Blue

City Crafter: English rose -  Red, white and Blue (+optional Roses)

Alphabet challenge: L is for Lace

Just Scraps: Love is in the air

Raise the Bar: Wedding recipe - Something old (the lace and ribbon from my bit box), Something new (my grungepaper rose), Something borrowed (the grungepaper rose idea), something blue (Stormy skies DI)

I hope you're having a good weekend, the weather is a bit temperamental today so I'm going to spend the rest of the afternoon trying to finish one of the other unfinished projects cluttering up my craft room lol

Thanks for looking
