It's Tim time again, this week's Compendium challenge is Industrial Grunge found on page 54 of the book.
I've actually got this done early for a change, but there is a reason, I'm going to a friend's Wedding on Sunday so I can't very well turn up with inky hands can I? Plus I figured, if I get my entry in a bit sooner I might land lucky with the random number thingy.
Back to the challenge anyway, having a change from a tag. The background as we crafter's say was a happy accident from last week's challenge. I cut the leaves and used the leftover to mask them, then inked the background. Added a sentiment and my industrial grunge leaves (I'm still in Autumn mode, too soon for Christmas).
Distress Inks used: Spiced Marmalade, Rusty Hinge, Wild Honey, Tea Dye, Vintage Photo
Gold Metallic Alcohol Ink
Go Kreate dies
and sentiment from Ebay store in Malaysia
Lovely card - those leaves look so real. Elizabeth
