the Sketchbook Project
Okay, I am gathering my supplies, distressing my sketchbook and getting the inpsirations in order. Today I will share the distressing of the pages. Personally I like the look of distressed paper, the aged, the torn, a bit of history. So with this in mind I decided it would be loads of fun to pretend I was working on an old book-alas distressed pages. I tea stained the pages, used brown inks, crupled some edges, and then dunked the whole thing in a tea bath then dried it out. Phew, I am glad I didn't ruin it. Here it is if you are interested...How do you distress paper?
