Easy Distress Backgrounds Two Ways | NEW Salvaged Patina

I’m sharing my two favourite Distress techniques, and the best bit is that they give you two super easy and beautiful backgrounds.

Distress Oxide – Ink Blending is so simple and easy when you’re working with Oxides! They really do blend like butter!

Distress Ink – Ink Smooshing is honestly foolproof! You just work in layers, drying each one before moving onto the next.

I finished both of my backgrounds with some GORGEOUS embossing glitter called Mojito from WOW’s Fiesta Trio.

I’m also showing you a really awesome technique to get these thick, metal looking sentiments. ?

These cards were created as part of a really awesome hop that I’m part of, over on Instagram, for Teen Self Esteem. (*check out my post below.)
