Grundgy Christmas

Hello Everyone

As a neat freak, I don't do messy - well apart from my craft room! I like quite clean projects so a grungy look is way out of my comfort zone - but I was playing with my crimper and came up with this card.


I gritted my teeth and tore my cardstock and dirtied it all up with lots of daubing in Always Artichoke and Crumb Cake ink.

I used a border of orange to add some zing - and I think I quite like it. I guess it could be a Christmas card to send to a man! DH likes it. LOL

I will be back soon with something much more girlie for Christmas!

  1. It's grungy, but so fun! I agree with you about the border...perfect amount of "zing" with the red. The crimper gives great texture, too. :)

  3. I'm good with tearing, finally. I need to work on USING my embellishments now. It's so hard for me to do that. LOL

    Love the card!
