lawnscaping challenge #102 - distress addicts

good morning!
today is a brand new Lawnscaping Challenge! and it's definitely one of my FAVORITE challenges - distress addicts!!



you can use any of your distress products, or you can just distress your card to make it look rough or aged! i decided to use my distress inks and markers! 
and i also broke out the brand new Gleeful Gardens stamp set on my card! eeek!! LOVE that one!


i used a piece of computer paper for a mask and used peacock feathers and tumbled glass to create the sky. then i dropped a little water on top! 
when that was done, i moved the mask over the sky and then used shabby shutters and mowed lawn to create the grass!


the mushrooms were watercolored with distress markers and then i popped up the large one for some dimension!
a few enamel dots and a strip of washi, and the card was done!
i really LOVE how bold the card is! it makes me happy!

for even more inspiration (if you can stand it!), check out the lawnscaping facebook page! we're dedicated to keeping your creative juices flowing! :)
