This is for two challenges, as well as my January quota for the SCS Christmas Card Challenge. I used a French sentiment for Ways to Use It "Speaking Foreign". And Free for All "Baby, It's Cold Outside" is to use the wrinkle free distress technique and then alter it with the addition of salt, and keep the theme of "it's cold outside".
I used a green and two blues for the wrinkle free distress and added coarse sea salt while it was still wet. I stamped the image and sentiment in dark green and heat embossed in clear ep. And then sprinkled two kinds of Frantage on it and heated from underneath to create snow and some extra texture.
I didn't have any dark green cs to border it with so rubbed my dark green ink on the edges of a rectangle of white cs and added embossing powder - that way my border perfectly matches. It's then popped up on a white cardbase.
