Here is my card for Viva la Verve sketch with a twist for the first week of October. The twist this week was the style of shabby chic.
Shabby chic to me is soft colors paired with cream, and is slightly distressed. The background of this card was stamped with Hero Arts Dots and Flowers background stamp (my latest favorite!). I randomly colored the stamp with Apricot Appeal, Pretty in Pink, and Regal Rose markers, and the rubbed Antique Linen Distress ink over top. I wanted it to look like wallpaper you might see in a farm kitchen in the 1930's.
