Celebrate distressing

Hi everyone! I decided to participate in the Make it Monday challenge #5 over at Capture the Moment. This week it's all about distressed edges. Here's my card.

Kraft, black and creme card stock were the colors I chose to make this masculine card. Images are stamped in Fresh Snow Palette ink. Both the main and side panels edges were distressed using a pair of scissors.

Black grosgrain ribbon and black self adhesive pearls added to dress up the card a bit. Hopefully its not too fussy for a guy! You know how they don't like ribbon! (wink wink)

All stamps are from Papertrey ink. Leaf stem and sentiment are from the Life set and the swirl is from the Mat Stack 1 collection.

Thanks for stopping by!

    Oh, very pretty! I have been itching to make a card with the "distressed look" for some time now...and I haven't done it yet. You've done a really nice job here.
