Can you give an example of "distressing"? I make lots of ATCs and I think I make many that are distressed, but what are some of the ways to do what you are talking about? Do you mean tea dying, walnut ink, wrinkled paper, burnt edges, thinks like that? Thanks.

Well Sherri, all of those are good examples. I like to wrinkle my paper and eitehr tear the edges, or use my edge distresser tool. I also like to take an ink pad and just ink the page after I have wrinkle up the paper. That's how I do it, but as you know there any many more ways, and all are welcomed...I'll post a picture of one that I have done.

You can also print out a picture on cardstock and run sandpaper over it, this has an awesome effect.
