Rustic

The Mixed Media Monthly challenge is RUSTIC, when i heard rustic i think of country decor, vintage finds, rust, and distressed finishes.  Here is my creation.  I usually do i quick tutorial on the creation process but today i am lazy so just some pictures and close ups.

I kept all the colors soft with lots of inking for a distressed finish.  I used vintage photo, walnut distress ink and brown gelatos to add antiquing.

Lots of layering as usual with elements cut with my silhouette.  Loving the silhouette these days I design in Corel Draw then cut.  Works great i can use my chipboard designs and cut from paper.  Much easier for layering.

I used new chipboard pieces, door wreath, panel window, and inspiration words.  I was lucky enough to find a picture that worked with the panel window.

Added texture with modelling paste and color with Lindy's sprays for the background.  Again nice soft colors.
