Today we are sharing Laura's inspiration using Distress inks, spray and mediums. She met the challenge by adding a vintage touch using Ground Espresso Distress Ink around the edges of her scrapbook page. She also had some fun using the new Prima moulds,

Janna is sharing her Distress inspiration today. On her card she used a Micro Glaze resist technique on the maple leaf.
Then she sprayed Vintage Photo Distress Spray Stain over it. More details can be found in the post on Janna's blog.
Today we are kicking off our new inspirational product spotlights. Design team member Janna has challenged us to get out our Distress Inks, Sprays, and Mediums and create a vintage or shabby chic project featuring Distress products. She says let’s have some creative fun and get our fingers inky this month, happy crafting!
Our first Design Team member to jump into the challenge is Lyla Larimore - A Chief's Wife's Heart's A' Fire.
Our challenge blog has had a great run over the past ten years, first as Frilly and Funkie celebrating all sorts of vintage-inspired paper crafts and more recently as The Funkie Junkie Challenge Blog. We have noticed a decline in participation in our challenges over the past year and feel it's time to move past challenges into purely inspiration style posts. We are thankful for all the visitors, challenge players and artists who have contributed to the success and longevity of our blog. It's amazing that we have passed our 10th anniversary of the blog's beginning.
Our new approach is to provide inspiration for using products sold in our on-line store The Funkie Junkie Boutique. Tomorrow is the beginning of a new product spotlight cycle. Our talented team of designers will be given a product or group of products to provide inspiration for using the products. The designers will each post on separate days throughout the two week cycle. The posting days will be Wednesday, Friday and Monday. We will no longer have scheduled guest designers but may occasionally have guests pop in with inspiration.
We will be offering a $25 gift certificate to shop at The Funkie Junkie Boutique each product spotlight cycle. To enter, you must create a project using the spotlighted products, post it on your social media and tag #thefunkiejunkie. At the close of each spotlight cycle, we will randomly select a winner from the individuals who tag us.
We hope all our loyal readers will enjoy our new approach. We would love to hear your comments!
