Grungy Walls by Debbie James

I decided to make a new page divider for my That's Crafty! Journal and I wanted to use some beautiful papers from 13 Arts.

I took the page divider and covered it in one of the lovely papers from the 6"X 6" paper pad. I edged the paper with some walnut stain Distress Ink from Tim Holtz before sticking it to the panel.

I cut some elements from the Grungy Walls postcards and edged them with Walnut stain, I also roughed the edges with a pair of scissors for a more antique look. I also manipulated the images so that they would have some dimension when adhered to the piece. I also used a sentiment and some butterflies from the Grungy Walls ephemera pack.

To add some more interest I used the 13 Arts Avril stamp and stamped parts of it onto the paper with the walnut stain distress ink.

I then took the 13 Arts stencil, Grungy Butterflies and I stenciled through some Creative Muse Designs Smooth Texture Paste.

Once dry I arranged the pieces onto the base until I was satisfied with the layout. I added some paper flowers and some splashes of the 13 Arts Splash Ink bronze glitter.

I loved making this and I hope you will try something similar, check out the papers from 13 Arts, there is a fabulous selection of papers on the website.
