Marks finest papers Speedy the cat challenge is Distress, which seems to mean ‘old’ antique looking and there are distress inks and techniques so I hope this fits. The distressed image is from Marks finest papers ‘Thankful for you’ set , I used Tim Holtz distress ink. then sponged the teal and goldenrod inks around the background so i could enter the Playdate Cafe color challenge (see below). The sentiment is from hero arts.
