Wow! August already.
This month I have a technique challenge for you, using 3 different techniques.
1. Layering , if your not sure about layering find a sketch with layering on it to show you how to place your papers.
2. Distressing I did not like distressing at first I thought it was too messy. But now I like doing it when the mood strikes. I especially like doing it on vintage LOs. There are lots of tools out there for distressing, but don't forget that the edge of your scissors do a great job too. You can find tons of tutorials on You Tube on distressing.
3. Inking I love inking my distress edges. I use the same color ink on all my edges to give my page continuity. I also inked my banners & pleated flowers.
Have fun!!!
I used Echo Park 4th of July mini theme collection from the Paper Secrets Shop.
