Distressed and Grungy Tilda!




The weekly challenge on Tilda & Co was to make a distressed and grungy card. I have chosen the image of Tilda with her bandages on for this card. The papers are K & Co, I have added a pink acrylic paint washto the papers, sanded this off a bit with sandpaper and then stamped an Elusive Image Damask stamp on top of this in places. The edges have been distressed and torn and I have added some ribbon, eyelets, flowers and pearls to embellish. I have added some white rings using various lids and white acrylic paint.

I LOVE this one. I don't normally like anything distressed or "technically" messed around with but there is just something about this one. It's fab.
