Snow Sports - Ski

Okay this one may seem "simple" but I tried a couple of new things (for me) - that's what its all about right?
I crumbled up a piece of off white cardstock then flattened out. I smeared Tim Holtz Distress Ink (Antique Linen) over the top and then applied a light mist of water. I then heat set using my craft iron and some parchment paper. Once dry I then lightly smeared a blue ink for contrast. The image is an old Vogart TextilePrint (you can read about my "thrift" here) that I ironed on. Here is the original transfer.
I then cut out the tag to the size I wanted and did the stamping and added some Frayed Burlap Distress Stickles. I like how it turned out!
