Shabby Chic cards


The challenge this week at O.S.A.A.T is anything goes, and with this in mind I set myself a challenge to use my favourite Cosmo Cricket papers.  I have had these 18 months but this is the first time I've used them, as I didn't know what image would suit them.  Looking through Stitchy Bear Stamps store, I saw Christine Angel and thought she would be ideal to go with the vintage/retro papers.

(The flower at the top left hand corner looks pink but it is red and had been aged to match the chipboard flower, bottom right.)



On this card I also used my Crop-a-dile for the first time on a card!  Woo Hoo.  Two unused things in one post - can't be bad!  :)

I would like to enter both cards into the O.S.A.A.T. challenge - Anything goes - As you like it.
And the first one into Allsorts Challenge Blog - Keep it simple.
