Compendium-of-Curiosities-Challenge week #10


Can it be week 10 already in The Compendium-of-Curiosities-Challenge happening over at Linda's Blog ? Better known as Studio L3.


This week the Challenge is Distress Stickles. As I have been in the past I'm using these challenges to help me get a head start on all my holiday cards and tags. This week is no different. I created another Christmas Card using the technique and even managed to use one of my new found bottle caps in the piece.


I love the rustic feel of it. Hope you do too. Now on to the Simon Says Stamp Challenge..... LOL

  9. Stephen, this is gorgeous! It's rustic and totally elegant at the same time, and the Stickles look fantastic on the evergreens. You inked this beautifully, too-- it looks like worn leather, and the bottle cap is the perfect touch! I absolutely love it!
