Hello,
Hope your week has been good so far. The challenge at Tilda & Co is to make a card for under £1. Well, I found this quite daunting, as I never think about what all the bits and pieces cost as I start to make my card. I decided to keep it as simple as possible so I wouldn't have to add up and calculate too much. My brain would not be able to cope. I stamped Tilda with versafine and coloured her in with distress inks. The scalloped oval I distressed with aged mahogany, stamped with katzelcraft and sprayed with silver glimmer mist. The basic grey paper I distressed with aged mahogany and stamped magenta corners and used inkssentials to colour the flowers. The little hearts I stamped with paper artsy and added inkssentials detail. I also added liquid pearls platinum to my card to add depth.
The cost of my card is as follows. Card 10p, basic grey paper 16p, white and black card 20p, ribbon 10p total cost 56p. phew!
Thank you so much for looking.
love kim x
