I stamped my map in Close to Cocoa craft ink. Once the ink was dry, I added water to some Pool Party reinker drops and painted the water areas on the map and added some spatter after those areas dried. I sponged Soft Suede and spattered it as well. I distressed the edges and did the faux burnt edge. I crumpled and sponged the panel too. I added linen thread accents then my metal charms. I used the Distressed Texturz plate inked in Soft Suede to add some woodgrain to my card base and also distressed the edges of this.

Fantastic! I've always admired your style and grunge is one of my favorites! Love the charms as well as the unique way you strung the linen thread! This is SO well done!
