Playing with distress stuff

Here's a card I made for the OCC Chemistry 102 class by Tim Holtz. Maybe I should have used 'Bah Humbug' as the title for this post. This crazy bird cracks me up.


I have been playing with distress paints, stains, inks, layering stencils and stamps. I also mixed in a few tips and tricks from the OCC Heat wave class and then added a little gold embossing paste through yet another stencil for some festive shimmer and shine. Not my usual style or colours but fun to make.

Challenges:
ATSM - 203 Holiday
SSS Wednesday - Things with wings
CHNC - 290 Cute or anything Christmas goes
CHNC Extra - Always Anything Christmas goes
CCAYR - Anything Christmas goes
Christmas at Sweet Stampin' - Anything Christmas goes
Crimbo Crackers - 111 Anything Christmas goes
