Hello crafters,
This fortnight, the Allsorts challenge optional theme, chosen by Donna is "Create your own background". As usual, you can also enter with an "anything goes" theme.

I chose sprays to make my background, enhanced by stamping:
I first used Distress Oxide sprays and Prima Bloom sprays on white cardstock.
When dry, I partially stamped in different colours of Distress inks some of the stamps in the AALL & create Crocus stamp set (#624) in the background.
After stamping the flower I coloured it with pencils and added Distress crayons to get a better opacity. As it happens both colours are shimmers hence the shine (if you can see it on the photo).

That’s a very pretty card. Great background xxx
ReplyDeleteIt's a very pretty background with a misty feel to it, the Pansy blends yet still very much a focal element, so prettily done.
