Guess who's in the Simply Sassy Spotlight??

I was really honoured when Maria asked if I would be this week's Simply Sassy Spotlight ... felt a bit of pressure mind making the card mind!!!
I used one of my favourite Sassy's, Amelia.  I inked up most of her and coloured her using my distress inks.  I stamped the Prima frame round her in sepia, and then distressed it all using DIs.  The dp is Bo Bunny, which I grunged up a bit with the TH distressing tool and a lace stamp I have.  I wanted it to look like everything was in the bottom of  drawer, not placed, so everything is at angles.  The raffia lace is from my stash, and I added so chippie squared covered in dp and wrapped in twine.   stamped the TH postcard up onto some kraft paper in speia and then crumpled it, and distressed it.  The 7 Gypsies print tissue paper, TH film strip and flowers complete it.

Challenges:
Papertake Weekly - Anything Goes
Stampavie and More - more than 3 layers
Everybody-Art-Challenge - use shapes
Cute Card Thursday - technology - film strip
Creative Craft - pretty blossoms
