Cute Card Thursday & Basic Grey Challenges. (Archaic paper)

Two challenges in one again (the Powers that be must be looking after me this week, knowing that I have a busy week ahead).
The Cute Card Thursday challenge was 'Food' so there is Edwin picking his mushrooms to take home for his breakfast!
The Basic Grey Challenge is distressing. I have quite a lot of Basic Grey papers - I absolutely love them. Bringing myself to use them is hard enough - but to distress them was doubly difficult. I particularly like these Archaic papers - they are so adaptable. Edwin, mushrooms and trees are from the new Autumn range and are coloured in watercolours.Papers: Basic Grey - Archaic
Stamps: Magnolia - Autumn collection
