I was supposed to be tidying my crafty space, however I came up with this quick card that I thought I'd share instead!!! bet you've all had that feeling hey! lol
This little number has its main feature image of an elephant from the amazingly talented Tim Holtz that I've had for ages, and the branches and grass stamps are from the equally talented Sheena Douglas
I used Rangers distress ink on the background and on the tag, adding yellow for a touch of bold sunshine to the final piece.
As you can see I used raised pieces in a couple of places to add depth and I do hope you like the finished result - I think its a little bit shabby and chic, and a little bit bold with that distressed edge!
Thank you for stopping by and please leave me a comment as I love reading your feedback :)
Happy Crafting :)
