Bailey!

Oh I love distressing, I just made two Tim Holtz tags with distressing, check out my blog if you get a chance.
Time for me to do a distressed layout, haven't done that in a while.

Bailey! Great layout! Hope you have a chance to look around and play along with our other challenges too!

Here is mine

I've learned to LOVE distressing. I got myself a Distrezz-It-All for Christmas but haven't figured out how to work it correctly so my distressing on here was done manually. First the background paper was core embossed and I sanded the entire page. I also used other core paper for my mats which I used a manual distressing tool on all the edges. I used Distress stain around the outer page. I inked the edges of all the matting. I finished of the LO just by adding a few stickers and bling snowflakes.

Great layout! Love the snowflakes and holly! TFS!
