Mo's "Distressing" Challenge

Happy Monday! I hope everyone had a great weekend. The summer is winding down and kids are headed back to school. I am looking forward to the cooler days and the approaching holiday seasons.

I made this card for Challenge #149 - "Distressing" w/Mo Image. The card must include a digital stamp from Mo's Digital Pencil Shop and it must have a distressed, tattered or torn look.

This is how I made the card;
(1.) I started with a blank greeting card that measures 5" by 6 1/2".

(2.) The background is a piece of distressed cardstock from a Tim Holtz paper pad. I distressed the edges of the cardstock with a pair of scissors.

(3.) I chose the image "Tin Man" from Mo's Digital Pencil Shop. I applied Tim Holtz distress ink "Old Paper" to the background with a small paintbrush. I colored the image with Copic sketch markers. I lightly distressed the edges with scissors and mounted the colored image on a piece of kraft cardstock.

(4.) I used a "Wish you were here" tag from the "Par Avion" die-cut pack from K & Company. I embellished the card with two silver glitter stars from the same die-cut pack.
