Papertrey Ink Make it Monday

I have missed the last few Make it Mondays so I wanted to participate while this one is fresh in my mind! The theme is distressing edges. I used a kraft card base which I stamped with the library card stamp in Fresh Snow. I only inked the stamp once because I didn't want the lines of the image to be perfect. I diecut the notebook page twice in soft stone and some American Crafts paper and distressed the edges. The sentiment is from Everday Button Bits. Then using an old star chipboard shape which I distressed and inked, I attached an AC brad to the centre. The little brass charms are from a pair of earrings that were reduced to €0.50. Finally I wrapped some bakers twine around the notebook pages and inked all around the edges of the card. Thanks for looking!
