Totally Papercrafts Week 11 Challenge


Getting back to the swing of things was harder than I thought. I was beind in finishing my swaps and getting other work done so that finally left today for a challenge. Here is my card for Totally papercrafts Week 11 Challenge. The theme was Distressing....yeah right up my alley. I love distressing. Especially this technique. It takes just 3 distress inks some paper and an edge distressow. I used old paper, walnut and Black soot. Crumple and distress the edges then using the lighter colour cover the paper(I used Old Paper) , With the Walnut rub the edges and slightly in then use the Black soot sparingly around the outer edges. I also used inkadinkado greeting stamps and crafty individuals bird frame stamp. The paper is snippets of cosmo cricut and the lace and ribbon are from my stash. the flower is just scraps of paper torn and distressed with the same ink then layered with a Basic grey brad. Hope you like it. Angela
