Friends


For the challenge at Tuesday Taggers which is 'Give it Some Distress!'

I have used Distress inks in 'mustard seed', 'walnut stain', 'tea dye', and 'dusty concord' to create the background and splashed it with water. The image, a stamp also by Tim Holtz, was stamped using Nick Bantock ink in 'Lamp Black' and a little paper piecing done to bring out some parts of the image.
