I love anything Vintage and especially things that remind me of Italy. Gesso Fresco resembles the ancient plaster you see when visiting very old buildings. I love it! Lots of new restaurants recreate it to give the same feel to their walls. This card incorporates Distress Crayons into the technique. These are first attempts so keep that in mind. 😉
