Hello and happy Tuesday. It's time for another challenge at CASology. This week, our cue word is
Distress. I have been loving my Distress inks lately, so decided to use them in two different ways.
I used Distress Inks Abandoned Coral, Mowed Lawn and Peeled Paint to watercolor the images on my card front. The images came pre-stamped on water color paper, part of a new Bold Blossoms paper pad by PTI.
I used Distress ink Tumbled Glass to sponge a light amount of color surrounding my flowers.
Now, it's your turn. How does DISTRESS inspire you? I hope you play along this week. Please remember to keep it Clean and Simple.
Please head on over to the CASology blog and gather some inspiration from the design team.
We are sponsored this week by Lawn Fawn.
