Imagine what you could do....

Hello all in Blogland and I hope that your Monday has gone well? We've had quiet day - with rain! - but just glad that we enjoyed some sunshine yesterday (and yes, the bbq did come out!).  Tilly the Dog and I have just been out for our evening walk, despite the drizzle, although I have to say that Tilly is not really an 'all-weather' sort of dog, and is quite keen to get home again when we're out in the rain!
Today's card is something a bit different from me and was made for someone who is a photographer, and I wasn't quite sure what to make for him, as he wouldn't particularly want fuss and flowers! So I decided to go for distressed sepia tones and saw this great freebie digi of a vintage camera.


The backing papers were from stash and I've had them so long I can't remember where they came from! I've added plenty of distress inks round the edges. The sentiment stamp is an Inkylicious one from Joanna Sheen (and I just love the wording on this!) and the 'film strip' prints were also images downloaded from t'internet, resized and distressed!  I've added twine, brads and some seam binding from stash and the wooden tile is from CraftyEmblies.


and the inside decorated to match. 
Just hope the photographer likes it! 
Back soon,
Kim x 

I'm entering this card into the following challenges:-

  7. What a great card ... your photographer friend is going to love it!
    Wee Tilly and Ruby would get on well together - she hates the rain too, but give her some snow and she'll roll round in it for ages. Crazy dog.
