CASology Week #186: Distress



This is my second post today.  If you are looking for my ColourQ post, please click here.

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.



I am also entering this card at AAA Cards #58: Sequins.



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.

    Another beauty Joyce. I love your water coloring and the addition of the blue around the flowers and leaves really makes such a beautiful finish. Love the placement of those wonderful black sequins. They really compliment the lines of the flowers and leaves. LOVE it! Thanks for linking up and playing at AAA Cards!

    So soft and lovely, Joyce. That abandoned coral is such a pretty colour! It's both vibrant and subtle at the same time! Perfect choice for these beautiful blooms, and your colouring is dreamy. The perfect 'pick me up' card!!
