Cutie Pie DT Card

We have a new challenge starting today over at Cutie Pie, this time we want to see "Distressing".  How you distress your cards is up to you, think scuffed edges, torn paper, sanding and inking, anything which gives a shabby look.  Our sponsors this time are, Stamp and Create and  A Passion For Stamps, so why not play along for a chance to win some lovely digis.
I've used Ruth's lovely scabious image, coloured with Promarkers and Flexmarkers, then gone round the edges of the topper with Milled Lavender Distress Ink.  The patterned papers are Prima Meadow Lark, which I've teamed with Core'dinations which has been embossed with a Sheena Douglass embossing folder and then sanded.  All the edges have been scuffed with my Tim Holtz tool and I've added in some torn paper to complete the shabby look.  The final touches are some lace, ribbon, a bow and a few dew drops.
Robyn's Fetish - #131 - use an embossing folder
Eclectic Ellapu -  #3 - 1 image, 2 DP, 3 of the same embellishments, I used dew drops
The Squirrel and the Fox - #29 - use ribbon
Clearly Inspired - #62 - ribbon or twine
Do You Stack Up? - #95 - embossing
Happy Campers - #3 - shabby chic
Penny's Paper-Crafty - #99 - ribbon and/or buttons
