Wild West - Distressing Challenge

Here's my take on Carolyn's distressing challenge. I created a pocket using the red bandana paper which holds the journaling tag. I crumpled the pocket and sanded it to give it a distressed feel. TFL!


These are photos of my husband's great grandfather and great uncle who were performers in a Wild West Show. The photos were printed as postcards which included the original photographer information from Pittsburg, PA. The spelling "Pittsburg" without the ending h also helps pin down the time frame on these photos to somewhere in the late 1800's.
