Happy hump day!!! Whoot whoot!! And how exciting that I get to bring you this weeks "Watcha tootin about Wednesday with Club Anya & Friends"!! Now be kind, Im not a tooting kinda girl. But since so many people comment on my distressing etc, I thought why not toot about that!?!

This is the tools I use for my distressingBefore Shot of my dp

After shot

using the paper distressing tool around each edge, you can distress as little or as much as u like depending on the effect you want.

I have used at SU one, but its the same as Tim Holtz distressing tool.Before shot

using Miss Anya from Miss Anya Lounge set
After shot
distressing with Antique linen Distress ink and the Tim Holtz tool {you could also just use a sponge to distress ink}, I dip it in the ink pad and rub it around the endges of my paper.
Then I slightly distress with the edge distressing tool too.

And here is the finished card! As u can see I distress every layer of paper I put onto my cards :)I hope you enjoyed my toot, Im sure most of you know what I have shown, but for those who dont, I hope it was helpful.

NOW onto the challenge! Your mission/challenge is to create a card and have either paper or ink distressing on your card/project....or hey if you like you can do both like I do. You have until Tuesday 5pm cst to have your cards loaded to the Galleria!! I cant wait to see all your distressing :) And of course one lucky winner will receive a single of their choice...how awesome is that!!
