Let's get Arty (shabby)

I love layering on cards but don't often do it.
I went overboard with this one for Let's get arty.
1. The very back paper has been pinecone inked around the edges.

2.Next I used an ombre paper that you can hardly see.

3.The cream one with writing is actually a packet from skeleton leaves I cut to fit (too pretty to waste).

4.Then came a paper doiley which I lightly dabbed with walnut ink.I tucked a smaller piece in the top right hand corner.

5.Next was a lemon skeleton leaf.

6.My tag was originally white, so I walnut inked around it as well. The flowers and bird are from a Kaisercraft range.

7.The ribbon bow was a final inspiration.

This is beautiful, Julene. The layering looks wonderful and I love the "discolouration". Thanks for joining in with us at Let's Get Arty.
