Distressed again......

Hi all, I hope your weekend was a good one?!...... I took myself off to the NEC with my lovely Sis-in-law Jools. We had a fab day, although I think I can speak for us both... "our feet were killing us by the end of the day!.." lol.
Don't know if anyone else is the same but the strangest things seem to give me inspiration, Saturday it was a pom-pom ribbon! Only trouble is I didn't buy it when I saw it, thought I'd go back & get it later &..........yep, it was sold out!!! Trust me...lol

So, the card below which I've made for hubbies Aunt who will be 6o this week has had the distressed treatment.
PP's are all from a paper pack from Daisy D's, along with the tag. Image is one which Vicki very kindly sent me a while back, which I have coloured with watercolour pencils & then clear embossed over. Lace, ribbon & eyelets from stash & sentiment is Doodlebug Rub-ons in white which I have then inked over.

Hopefully this week I'll get chance to play with my new goodies I bought at the show, &, attack my list of Christmas cards I need to make!!!
Bye for now,
Kerry xxx
