Craft Barn DT project





Hi everyone, hope your week is going well so far. It's Wishing Well day on the Craft Barn blog today which means that a blogger who has asked to be shown a technique/tip or what to do with certain products gets their wish granted by one of  the DT members and they also get a prize :). So, it's my turn to grant the wish for Yvonne (congrats Yvonne!) who asked for ideas on using distress inks and I've altered these cute little paper mache suitcases to give two different looks with them, one with distress inks and one with Eco Green Paris Trunk inks. All the details are on the Craft Barn blog together with the materials lists.
