Hey there, fellow Crafters! Hope you are having a wonderful weekend. Anyway, I don't make a lot of Shabby card style mainly because it's not my normal style. I tend to go for a combination of fun and cute or graphic and clean. But I do appreciate this style so, when I find some inspiration at some magazines or books, I make it my own by changing few or several elements and come up with something that I am truly proud of like these 2 cards featured here. I totally adore this girl with a cat image from High Hopes stamps. Stamped a couple of image and colored them differently with Gamsol technique. I made a similar card style for them with just a slight difference in color combinations. I did lots of inking in here and some fancy stitches. I used an MS Border Punch for added dimension, brads, gems, layered prima flowers and glittered them for added texture and bling. I thank the Lord for allowing me to get some time to do what I love doing...Hope you enjoy browsing on the pics...This card is entered into these challenges:

I will definitely make more Shabby Cards in the near future. I really want to try different styles and see how I can incorporate my own personality with any creation. It does not really matter what card style you make as long as it gives a smile to your face at the end of the day and hopefully appreciation from the ones you will give it to. Hope to find more time to create before the end of the month. Please leave a comment if you enjoy this or any other projects you see in this blog...I will tuly appreciate them...God bless!
