I did lots of distressing and sponging and added some twill for texture. I decided to add some vintage buttons from my stash as an embellishment (and for the Everything But The Kitchen Sink Challenge) as well as a rub-on sentiment & pounces of Crystal Ice Stickles on my Christmas tree (I squeeze it on my finger, rub it flat, and then pounce my finger over the tree, which keeps it from looking "clumpy") for an all over sparkle like tiny little holiday lights. I tied linen thread through my buttons and then unraveled the ends after trimming.
This card uses Jen's Sketch For You To try; Everything But the Kitchen Sink Button Challenge, several Christmas in July Challenges (Our Creative Corner & Stamp Something) as well as the Paper Crafts Style Week Let's Do Shabby & Vintage.
