BG Challenge 17 - Chipboard

Challenge 17 - Chipboard

For this weeks challenge we would like to see you use some chipboard in your creations, fear not if you don't have any chipboard though, a good alternative is to recycle think cardboard that is usually found in boxes, simply cut some shapes from it, decorate it how you please and your good to go :), and of course not to forget to use at least one item from BasicGrey somewhere on your creation...

...well, I've had this chipboard since I purchased my 2 scoops collection which is about a year ago and I'm only using it now (shame on me!) The background is created with a few tears and some ripping and a little of Tim's paper distresser. Then ink pad skipping over all the edges and the paper lace. I have die cut the flower in different 2scoops papers and layered to make the chip board form a stalk.

I had a little disaster with the bookplate shape and it has now been inked, sanded, reinked, rubbed, distressed and few other effects (efforts) I believe it started pink and now it's green! I stamped sentiment and heated with white embossing powder finished off with a touch of bling and 2 scoops brads! The butterfly is my own version of grand adhesion's I've punched the butterfly three times and layered, love this effect!
