This is for today Technique Challenge 227 Faux Burnt Edges. I did mine just a little differently, but it's the same concept. I started off with More Mustard paper. I used daubers with More Mustard, Creamy Carmel, Close to Cocoa, and Chocolate Chip ink to create my look. I also de stressed my edges to give them a rough look.
This is also for Crafty Creation's Wednesday Challenge where we were to use stars and stripes and it didn't have to be a patriotic card.
This is for Three Clovers Designs Thursday Challenge where we were to create a card for where you are from. I am from Texas if you can't tell!! LOL

Great card! Love your take on the stars and stripes theme, the twine looks great and your faux burned edges look just fabulous on the mustard cardstock - great job!
