Welcome back! The challenge this challenge at Frilly and Funkie is hosted by the awesome Autumn! The challenge this time is Timeworn and Autumn describes it as follows:
" As the last leaves fall from autumn trees, we are reminded of the beauty of yesterday. The leaves crinkled underfoot, the clock ticking onward, a fleeting memory... For this challenge, we would love to see your timeworn vintage or shabby chic creations celebrating the beauty of the aged, dated or weathered."
I was thrilled with this and have been thinking about leather. Soft worn textured leather. I decided to have a play with my inks and cardstock to see if I could replicate the texture of aged worn leather. I will be sharing the results of my technique Saturday on the Frilly and Funkie blog. So make sure to stop by to check it out.
I can't share much more info on this because it will all be shared on Saturday. But I will tell you it was a lot of fun and I have a few other tricks to share.
Come join in the fun and share your timeworn beautiful art with us!
