Vintage and Distressed Thank you card

Hi all,

Well it's not been such a busy week this week. Had lunch out with hubby on Tuesday which was nice.Voluntary on Wednesday  which was fun but tiring so have been recuperating ever since. Here's a card I made for my Sister the other day to thank her for the jacket she had gone shares with my Dad for.
All the papers, flower and image is all from Polkadoodles 'double sprinkles of kraft' fab cdrom. I used a fiskars puch  for the border, kraft card for matting and layering, a button die, bakers twine, card candi and need I mention vintage photo distress ink pad.

Challenges:
Polkadoodles week 2 - vintage/retro
Delightful sketches - vintage distressed
Divas by design challenge 18 - new beginnings and or thanks
Flutterby wednesdays challenge 186 - open challenge include butterfly,fairy or angel.

I got some good news this week I came in the top 3 in the Nutcrafters Challenge.
Also Top 3 in the Stamps r us challenge.  Really chuffed.  Well that's all for now. I need to finish off tidying and sorting out my crafty stuff - stamps & dies today. Have a lovely weekend.

Love Debs x
