This week at Simon Says Stamp & Show, "The" Linda Elbourne has chosen the theme of using a technique from the Guru himself ... Yes no guesses needed ... Thee Tim Holtz!! No need for me to think twice about this challenge then lol. Grungy Monday theme this week is "Texture Fades & Distress" ... PERFECT!
I have used the Double Distress Technique from "A Compendium of Curiosities" pg 40. 
Along with the new Kraft Resist Paper Pad ... which I'm now cutting into without batting an eyelid ... eeek! I have used Distress Ink (Walnut Stain & Stormy Sky), Distres Stains Vintage Photo & Weathered Wood
The quote is from Wendy Vecchi's "SteampunkArt" and the hanging is made from the Art Parts large creative cover set. All embellishments are from the Tim Holtz (Ideaology Range).
