Distressing is a decorative process that adds texture and gives paper projects a vintage or worn look. There are many techniques paper crafters use to distress paper and cardstock, including inking the edges, tearing, applying paints and tints, scrunching, burning, and roughing up the edges with sandpaper, scissors or specific tools. It’s an inexpensive technique that can add a great deal of character and interest to a project and is popular for shabby chic or grunge-style crafts.
Roughing the edges and scrunching the cardstock for a shabby chic result.
Love the "grunge" flower, it's beautiful.
