Lots of layers

Back with the second card I managed to finish this week. I had a play with my lovely (probably favouritest ever) Maja papers for this one:




How many layers?  Four of Maja DP, all distressed with the Timmy Thingy and edged with Walnut Stain.  I added some purple seam binding and a layer of lace, too.  The Sentiment is a Whimsy stamp which I inked up with more Walnut Stain.  Tilda was stamped onto a Spellbinders fancy oval and coloured with DIs and markers. I added some Crackle Glaze to the jam jar and went slightly loopy with the Frantage. Love that stuff, but can someone tell me how I can avoid the card buckling when I heat it from underneath?

I frantaged a metal butterfly, too and in the opposite corner put a selection of WOC flowers - a trellis rose, 20cm roses and 10cm roses.

I'd like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Cupcake Craft Challenges - Lots of Layers
Songbird Challenge - Bloom and Grow
Wild Orchid Crafts - Use 3 or more different flowers.

By the way, the challenge at Sweet Stampin' this week is doodling, so why not hop over and see the inspiration projects the Sweeties have made.

Have a lovely day!

Hugs
