Normally, we would simply dabbed some distressed ink on some pattern papers to get a distressed look but in this layout, I've tried to go a step further to create that old vintage distressed look.
These are the following steps:
1. Choose a few vintage designed/coloured papers as the background and then randomly crinkled the papers. Make some folds everywhere to create some distress lines.

2. Tear the edges of the papers to create a more distressed look.

3. Use some distress ink to ink all the edges and also lighty rub the ink on the distressed lines that we've created earlier.
With all these extra steps, you will get a very old vintage distressed look papers.
