We've now had four weeks of festively distressed fun playing with the Ranger/Tim Holtz Distress Powders along with our wonderful line of Dreamweaver Stencils and products. Huge thanks to Tim Holtz and the fab people at Ranger for sharing these four collaborative weeks with us, and providing the yummy shades of Distress Powders for us to create with. We've been inspired by the process, and we hope you have, too!
If you haven't won one of the prize packages yet, you still have one more opportunity this week as the set below is up for grabs to a random commenter on one of the Dream Team blogs.
If you've been following along each week, you've seen some gorgeous creations with these stencils and powders, so you should be all fired up to get distressed! If you've missed the first three weeks, check them out once you've made the rounds today:
My festively distressed project for this week is this:
Well...actually...it's NOT my project. My life is topsy-turvy right now while I try to move from one location to another. So...Lynell took pity on my and shared one of her creations with me for my post this week. Not particularly CAS and not particularly HOLIDAYS (but we can consider it a "thanks"giving card right?), but definitely a wonderful tribute to the collaboration between Dreamweaver and Tim Holtz Distress Powders. Who wouldn't want this gorgeous thank you card ANY time of the year?
Lynell's card features the Gingko Bough stencil design done with the Double Glitter technique, but using the Distress Powders in place of glitter, and of course heating to melt them to their more textural and weathered beauty. Various shades of the powders were used to created all the detail, and the sentiment was paste-embossed on the side, covered in more powder, and heated for even more visual interest.
Don't forget to leave me some love before hopping to the rest of the Dream Team blogs:
Please remember to continue to follow the team through the Dream It Up! blog as we bravely go where no stenciler has gone before, to like us on our Facebook page, and to learn from our fabulous weekly Thursday Tutorials on Paper Craft Planet as well.
