Day 129 - Aged Look

So today's challenge is give your card an aged look - but think of this as a DIY thing. It's not about using an embellishment that came with a vintage look, but rather creating it to look that way yourself. You can do this to your entire card or just to a single element on your card.

Today's example card is brought to you by Sally (aka Sally McD), who happens to be our very own Kim McDonald's mom! Check out her card:

WOW! I can definitely see that artistic talent runs in the family ;) And Sally took this "aging" thing seriously by using Tim Holtz distress ink on several elements of her card.

Get to know more about Sally and see her fantastic work at her blog, Stamping by Sam.

We've a got a blast from the past coming up tomorrow, so check back then...
