Welcome Back! It's time for another 4 Crafty Chicks Challenge! This week is all about distressing! I don't know about you, but being in the studio is my 'distressing'!
This Autumn Greetings card is all about distress. I started with white catdstock and painted it with black distress paint dauber so (acrylic paint). I then embossed some flourishes and script with clear embossing powder. Then I painted over the entire page with a raspberry paint dauber. When it was almost dry, I wet a cloth and wiped the paint off the the embossed images.
The leaves were made from th Lawn Fawn stitched leaf die from watercolor paper. I used some distress inks to blend some oranges, yellows, and reds together. The sentiment is embossed in gold and I added some bakers twine and a button to finish it off!
Get your craft on! Come visit us at 4 Crafty Chicks Blog and submit your entry by noon on August 25th.
