Hello Everyone. Here is my card for WT270 which was to Edge Distress. My favorite thing to do!! I use a scissors.
Background is Basic Grey on Black and bottom is punched. Top and sides are distressed and inked. Black grosgrain ribbon over that and rectangle attached with eyelets and stamped with Victorine Originals Strawberries.
Stacked flower is made from scraps of dp, a hand crocheted flower and a brad. I love distressed cards and am going to have a ball walking in the gallery today. Thanks for looking.

Beautiful papers Carol, along with the fun crocheted flower! I love that you stamped your image on coloured CS. Your border is just right for the vintage look here. On the distressing, it's true you do it so well. TFS

This is a beautiful card. I love all the colors and combination of papers. Stamping the strawberry on paper is perfect.. Your crocheted flower and bard is a great finishing touch.. Nice job.

Now that really is distressing! I like the look, but I couldn't bring myself to go that far. If I even just curl one little corner back, I catch DH trying to press it down flat again, LOL. And the blue and red is such a fantastic combination.
