I have a project for you today using the Tim Holtz Texture Surfaces, St Nick Bigz Die, Flip Frame and Distress Paints!
I love all the texture of the corrugated and burlap plus a bit of crackle paste! I’ve kept it simple to let all the different surfaces stand out.
I’ve shot a full process video, you can watch it below or on our YouTube channel. Enjoy!
