Shabby Chic

Good morning and happy weekend. Here's my card for this fortnight's challenge at Sweet Stampin', the theme this time is Shabby Chic/ Distressing- definitely not my forte! 
The sweet image is one I've had for years, I think it came from Funky Kits which sadly no longer exists, it's already part shaded which made it easy to colour, although I think I prefer it uncoloured.The edges of the dP are all distressed and inked, I've added some flowers, die cut leaves and metal embellishments and a big organza bow. he sentiment is an LOTV stamp.
As always, there's some wonderful inspiration from  the Sweeties over at Sweet Stampin' just click on the link to take a look.
Thanks for visiting
Chris

Super adorable Chris. Think I have one or two of those images from back then. Sadly missed indeed.

Oh! I remember these images Chris. I've a couple stashed away too.
Think sometimes the 'oldies' are still as sweet.
LOve your colours and design.. Such a pretty bow and lots of lovely embellishments going on here too.

Yeah, shabby chic isn't for me either. I mean it made me doodle. But it won't make me do **** ;)

I'd forgotten about those images, good to see it getting an outing again!
