Weathered, aged and generally worn out!

Hello all!  I won't keep you here at Words and Pictures for long.  This is just a reminder that today's the day I'm sharing some of the techniques I used to create my aged parchment tags for this month's Vintage Journey challenge theme, We're All Getting Older!  I'm looking for projects using techniques and products to make something new look old... weathered, aged, antiqued and worn.

If you hop over to A Vintage Journey, you'll find how-to details and step-out photos guiding you through my parchment process (or if you missed them, and just want to look at pretty close-ups of the finished tags, then visit Parchment and Pressed Flowers right here at Words and Pictures).  I hope you'll be inspired to come and join in with the challenge this month by making something look older too.

Thanks for stopping and hopping, and I'll see you again soon.  In fact, if you come back tomorrow, you'll find another project with lots more ageing, weathering and distressing going on!

We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.
