OK, now when I think of vintage/distress, I think of old and worn out looking, pretty with elements or floral and flourishes and sponging of course! I also used the paper piercing technique and added some texture on my card too, just to help give it that overall feel of vintage....I hope I pulled it off and that you like my card!!! Happy 4th of July and remember all those who have served and are serving to protect our FREEDOM!!!! Thanks so much for stopping by and have fun hoppin' ;)
