Tutorial Time at Speedy TV
Go on over to Speedy TV and Hilight Tutorial time. Click on #18. You're going to learn all about Distressing. This is not my thing ladies. I have to admit this. You won't see me ripping my papers or half destroying my image I just took so much time coloring. LOL. But I gave it a go. What you see is actually the back side of my first attempt. Just didn't like it. I was spritzing and swiping and stamping and yuck!! So I turned it over and stamped the image and liked it a lot better. I sponged Distressed inks both Old Paper and Linen on the piece. The background is a Faux Patina technique. A little Distressed Stickles was also used here and there. Wrinkled paper is perfect for this old map image from MFP a HC. Go on over and join in to have a chance to win a great stamp set.

I love all the cards you make. Love how the map looks old. :) Janis
Yo ho ho & a bottle of Rum! The Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow fan I am thinks you'll not be walking the plank with this wonderful treaure map & parrot card. I did not think much or care for distressing until I took a class with Tim Holtz. Check out the card I posted today that in which I distressed the edges with a Tim Holtz Paper Distresser.

aw, a cute card! great idea in the crumpled up map and then distressed - looks awesome with the smattering of other colors on it, too!
What a great job you did on this card! It is super cute.
Bottle of rum would be perfect with this...wink, wink! I cracked up over Melissa's comments. Fabulous card with perfect distressing. Thanks for playing!
Great card. The Patina look in the background really sets off the card.
love your map and how you distressed it...the embossed background, thanks for playing at TTOSTV...
