Hi! Here is a tutorial a did back when I could afford manicures. Don't worry, I used it minus the manicure and it still works!
1. Get manicure in the afternoon
2. Stay up until after 1:30 in AM making card
3. Decide you want to distress the edges of your cardstock
4. There is probably a tool for that, but what the heck, use your manicured nail. Chances are, it won't stay manicured a full 24 hours any way!
Thanks for your comments!
*Note: No photos were used in this tutorial as such nail abuse was felt to be too graphic in nature for the SCS audience.
Thank you to Purty Bratty Barbie for the CB folder I used on the BG!

Nails, huh? Man, I just gave mine up after 3 years! Never thought I'd ever go 'natural' again, but thought about the 30 extra bucks for stamps! lol! I like how you have incorporated here Brat! And your card is lovely! I love that CB panel, (mainly cause you didn't have to 'earn' it, thanks to PBB!)

Now, why did I spend all of that money on a distressing tool, when all I needed was a manicured fingernail, LOL! I think a manicure would have cost less than the tool! This is really gorgeous Terri, I love the colors and distressing! TFS!

Nail tutorial and all, I love this card. Those upsy daisies are so cool. The brads and cuttlebug, well done also... Good job major Terri! (Don't know where that came from!?)
