Inspired by craftykickstart16 again!

Hi again,
Here comes my second post.....

After watching people creating all those lovely master pieces with distress inks in #craftykickstart16 , I was just dying to buy them. And i did it this month :D

The Ranger Distress mini inkpads are economical and you get so many shades. Plus there was a valentines sale at artful crafting so I just had to shop. These are the things i got:

Aren't these lovely?

Then came the distressing part & I was distressed :(
All the tutorials seemed so easy and here i was with a blotted piece of paper.

Then I thought spraying some water will give it some effects...

Still not impressed......then i gave it one more go, this time I added more colours and blended with more force. Misted the paper with regular water spray bottle (forgot to order a mini mister :P)  this time it worked :D

Then I distressed some more..... (see , I am showing-off my new stamps  too :D )                                                                                

Loving my new inks , watching Tim Holtz videos and practicing. Taking it slow & steady ...... 

Thank you for joining me :)

Take care!
