It's Monday and that means a new Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge! This week it's all about "Frame It".
For this challenge I had picked out the Window Frames, and thought the Brickwork 3D Embossing Folder would match very well with it. Both are really realistic, and it had been a while since I had used the Brickwork folder and the technique I use with it to make it even more realistic. First, I gave the background a first layer of color with Distress Oxide Walnut Stain, Hickory Smoke, and Distress Spray Stain Ground Espresso. Then I used the Brickwork Embossing Folder with Distress Oxide Frayed Burlap on it.
I applied Distress Paint Antique Linen very lightly with my finger in a few spots. Then I used Distress Crayon Rusty Hinge, Ground Espresso and Peeled Paint for some more color difference in the bricks. With Distress Oxide Speckled Egg I made the grout a bit lighter in color. I also distressed the Window Frame with Distress Crayon, to make the weathered effect of the bricks similar with the window.

Ooh, they are definitely a creepy pair, peering at us through the window. And your smoke and smog-darkened brickwork is simply perfect!
