Distressing


I began this card this morning after looking at various challenge blogs. I decided to use the colours from Copic Challenges (as I had all the relevant colours in my collection) without realising that today is the day a new challenge is posted on that blog and by the time I came to upload it, my colours were out of date!!! How distressing is that?
The card itself is lightly distressed with chalk inks, overprinted with a crackle stamp and a little Glamour Dust added, none of which is terribly obvious on the picture. As the Creative Card Crew's challenge is 'Distressing' I'm feeling distressed enough to add it to that blog too. The sketch is from Create 4 fun and was great to work with! I made the sentiment on the computer.
I have just discovered the challenge at Your Next Stamp, where the theme this week is embossing, so this is for that challenge too. The papers are from Pink Petticoat.
End of Post!
