This week's ODBD challenge was right up my alley--the challenge is to "Distress it. You can use ink, tearing, or ripping...whatever it takes to give a distressed look somewhere on your creation."
For my distressed creation, I decided to create a 9x9 layout. I have so many photos that I need to scrap, and I truly miss doing scrapbook pages!! For my layout, I used my Making Memories edge distresser to tear up the edges a bit, and then I inked the edges in grey chalk ink. These particular photos are from Harbour Town on Hilton Head Island, SC. I used three ODBD stamp sets on this page. The flowers come from the ODBD set called "The Lord Has Risen." The scripture is from the ODBD set called "Scripture Collection 4," and I used the ODBD set "Fleu de Lis Borders" as a border between the photos. To see more details on this page and/or to participate in our challenge, please see my post here.
I also participated in four other challenges with this page:

This is awesome! I love the shabbiness! That pearl corner flourishand the little doily under the flower pieces are just right for this. Perfect colors -- simply amazing page.
