PIXIE COTTAGE CHALLENGE #18 Vintage/ Distressed

This week the Pixie Cottage Challenge is a sketch and/or distressed. BE sure to check outour special guest Suzanne Dean and the teams fabulous creations for some inspiration! We would love to have you stop by and join us. I watercolored this beautiful rose by Artish and cut it out with a #13 nestie.The sentiment is a scallop punch put onto a reversed scallop nestie. My solid papers are SU and the print is a graphic 45. I sanded all the edges to distress them then used some chalk for color and also faux stitched. I cut my butterflies out of vellum and colored with alcohol inks and added the buttons. The bow was tied with my new bow easy that my friend Martha sent me.
This also fits the following challenge:
Crafty Anns: Anything goes
Lots to Do: Friend
Frosted Designs: Sand Something
Alphabet Challenge: B for Butterfly
Totally Papercraft: Stitching
