The Crafty Card Makers have challenged us once again...all of this week the Woodware team have been demonstrating how distressing can be a good thing! My post today features this cute decorative kitchen trivet. The base is a page from a chipboard book which I've ink-distressed with brown and black ink around the edges. A off-white square of cardstock has the Dreamweaver Plaid/Stripes stencil pattern ink-stenciled in red and a fine black line, with the corners rounded.The focal point is a panel of Copper metal, machine-embossed with the Dreamweaver Rooster, and ink-distressed with Black StazOn
ink smooshed (technical term) with a sponge dauber into the crevices
and around the edges. A soft towel and a bit of cleaner removed the
excess. This was adhered along with some ivory lace, and a stamped twill
ribbon (Dreamweaver's Fine Feathered Friends), and also distressed with ink. Holes were punched at the top,
and hemp cord tied along with a ribbon bow and button to be hung in a
rustic-themed kitchen.If you haven't been checking out the rest of the team's posts this week, I highly recommend that you do so now! Check out the Woodware blog each day, and please leave comments for us!

Wow - I love this project and am going to give it a go myself! Thanks for the inspiration.
Oooh, I love this! Love the embossed copper and the ink to make it look older. Great job. Perfect project for this stencil too! Thanks for sharing.
