I picked up some old maps at Kept Creations and thought, now wouldn't these make a nice card? So I set to work and it was just one of those cards that put itself together. Why can't that happen all the time? If I needed to create a card for a class, I'd be agonizing over it and making things just perfect. A little OCD maybe? LOL! Well here's the result and I just thought I'd share.
I used Distress Inks to "weather" the map a bit and tore the edges. I made the roses using an MFT die and 3 different Distress brown inks. The leaves were also colored using Distress ink. I just finished it off by curling some of the edges to add to the "used" look.
Hope you like it and feel free to leave comments. I always love hearing from you.
Ciao for now!
Ciao Bella!
