My ” Autumn” page here was done as a distress techniques tutorial and it was just a quick summary of some possible distressing tricks.
So here are those I used on this page:
- Score your basic paper about 1/4”, use your bone folder for the crispy line and then ink it a bit with some brown ink. You get this kind of faux stitching line all over your layout.
- Mist randomly over your page, just a bit and with some visible color. I used red mist very similar to my dominant photo color.
- Use some sandpaper around your photo to distress the edges, make it visible.
- Crimple your leaves circle to the small ball, open it and then ink over it randomly to get this old vintage look.
- Ink the round tag edges with a light brown ink.
- Ink the paper edges with your main paper color ink as I did with the orange paper and orange ink.
- Ink the flashcard with some light ink all around to get some colored look as I did over this Pumpkin flashcard.
- Use Ranger Distress 3D glaze to cover your inked chip boards. Don’t cover it all over. Make a thin line in the middle of your chip boards.
Janet Zeppa - Thanks for all the tips and techniques.
Renee Zwirek - This looks great! I never would’ve thought to use my scoring board to create faux stitched lines and ink them…I have to try this! I love your tree and all the fall pieces in this LO! Great tutorial, Thanks!
Jan Hennings - love this Irit!
