More inspiration for our Country View crafts May challenge

  Hi everyone I am here today with my 2nd design team make to hopefully inspire you to join our May challenge. The theme this month is to share your projects which are " aged, weathered, distressed or timeworn." You don't need a blog or an Instagram account, just head over to the group and join in with the fun! The link is Here and if you are not already a member just request to join and we will warmly welcome you. It is also be a place you can be the first to hear about workshops, the latest releases etc etc. We have a happy membership of over 380 crafters and we are growing every day. You can enter the challenges up to 5 times as you like as long as you use products from brands which are stocked on the Country View Website.

I made this aged/distressed card using all Tim Holtz products. 

And this is how I  made it;

I used kitsch flamingo and saltwater taffy distress sprays to make a background. 

Plus a little stencilling using mustard seed distress ink and one of Tim' stencils. 

I then added some background stamping using the Field notes stamp set. 

I  gathered some Tim ephemera and a butterfly I made using the detailed butterfly die with some sterling foundry wax on the edges. 

I also used a stamp from the stamp sticker book and some of Tim's fab cello sticker tape to add to the aged/timeworn feel. 

I put my design together and finished off my card. 

Here it is once more

and 1 final shot

I have linked to products available on the website in my post. If they are not in stock just email Susan, who should be able to order them in for you. 

Remember that you can find me most days over on Instagram Here @jane.tyrrell where I share many, many more makes then I have the time to blog.

I hope I may have inspired you to give our May challenge a go. There is a  fab prize up for grabs too for one randomly selected and you can enter up to 5 times. 

Bye for now,

Jane x
