Always Weathered

I just love making this set look shabby. All product is SU! with the exception of the black safety pin. The edges were swiped with a toothbrush loaded with Chocolate Chip craft ink. The bird was inked, rock n rolled and spritzed. The taffeta is kraft that was run across my close to cocoa classic pad. Print pattern was inked using creamy caramel and then the edges were highlighted with a close to cocoa marker and spritzed before stamping. I overstamped it with weathered in Sahara Sand. The rust card base was stamped with weathered in craft white ink and the edges were toothbrushed as well.
