Posted: Mon Nov 02, 2009 12:12 pm Post subject: {November} Cheryl's "Distress It" Card Challenge |
|
|
My challenge to you is to use distressing on your card. You can make a holiday card, or any other card. Just use some kind of distressing on it. I used some patterned paper and an old vintage image from my stash.
In my sample card, I distressed the edges of most of the layers and even bent them around a little bit. I wanted the card to look old. Even the patterned paper I chose has a vintage feel. You can use whatever method of distressing that you'd like. The sky's the limit - bend it, tear it, ink it - just have fun with it.
I can't wait to see your cards! Don't forget to tally up your points: http://mysketchworld.s2.bizhat.com/viewtopic.php?t=3487 and then add them to the challenge point thread: http://mysketchworld.s2.bizhat.com/viewforum.php?f=62 _________________ Cheryl

Such a pretty card, Cheryl! And Santa will like that you used a picture of him where he looks a bit thinner. Yes. He will like that very much! I will make sure to point it out to him! _________________ Santa's Elf  |

Oh, Cheryl - you are a master at taking a technique like distressing and then providing an example that makes me want to distress the heck out of something! This card is so lovely and vintage and antique looking.
Beautiful! _________________ Lori

You crack me up, girl!! Do not try this technique while you are laying on the couch, with your foot elevated. That is, do not try it if you're not prepared to be covered with shredded paper!  _________________ Cheryl

I used a distressing edger on the cardstock and crumbled the pp for this card.
