Faded Lady

I was playing with some image transfer techniques for a few projects I'm trying to work on, and hopefully complete at some point.

This transfer did not come out perfectly, but I liked the faded/aged look.


I started with a chipboard base that I covered in old ledger paper. Then I layered an old handkerchief under the image that I transferred onto fabric. Lace trim, old tattered tulle, and some bling top her off. I sewed a crepe paper ruffle and inked the edges before adhering around the edge.

    Ooh, very pretty! I think the faded image is really neat. Looks so perfect with the old hankie and the ledger paper. Really love the pleated crepe paper around the edge, too. :)
