MFTGUESTDT contest is ON!!! and OMG! It's Shabby Chic... ILOOOVE this style but REALLY struggle, so what did I do??? I went with a challenge of BAR's to alter a letter as I had been threatening to do so for awhile and found this one at my LSS when it was closing... :( BUT...
TONS of TH Distress inks, Pearl mists and PTI cream ink were layered on. I used Prima papers along with matching prima rose ribbon. The word paper under the ribbon is actually the PACKAGING from the ribbon! tee hee..
MFT Die Namics butterflies, doily and doily strip were used, I spritzed them all with water (thanks for the reminder Melody) after distressing them to tone down the color and crinkled them up. The pearl flourish was from a VIP Kit which I took some TH pink distress in and toned down the white to get it to blend rather than "pop" ;)
MFT Inspired By Flowers and Clearly Sentimental about Time stamp sets were used. I used some of my crinkly inkly ribbn and a TH Vintage button to finish it off.
I am VERY pleased with this and the way it turned out... now if only I had a chandelier in my craft room... LOL
