Stamping, Heat Embossing & Distressing with Distress Inks

Hello friends..

Just dropping by quickly so share a card I made sometime back..

These days I am really addicted with distress inks.. & using them for different techniques like stamping, colouring, distressing, heat embossing etc..

I got some new stamps & wanted to try them out..
The background is stamped with Floral Flourishes (Just Rite stamp) & Seedless preserves distress ink..
I then distressed the edges with my scissors, Antique linen & Vintage photo

The images were stamped with Black soot & then heat embossed  with rangers black embossing powder.

I have propped the front panel on dimensionals & embellished with ribbon, lace & rhinestone.

Distressed Envelopes

Hello friends,

I LOVE LOVE LOVE my distress inks.. 
So I got a little crazy after I saw Rajni aunty's post..
& made many backgrounds using distress ink techniques at one go...hehehe...
(For some of them I don't even remember the colour combinations used..)


I adhered these beauties to some coloured money envelopes..
These backgrounds turned out so beautiful that I didn't want to cover them..
So I used minimal embellishments to decorate them..
I used some stamping, heat embossing, glitter, pearls, rhinestones, diecuts & punched borders to jazz them up.. & turn them into these gorgeous envelopes..
