What are two of my favourite things....blue and playing with my Distress inks. That is how I came up with this card. I started by covering my non-stick craft sheet with Distress ink in blues and sprayed with water so I could drag my cardstock through the wet ink. When it was dry, I stamped the flowers and cut them out and added some white details with my Signo pen. For the bkg. I placed drywall tape onto my paper then using the blue wet ink, painted it over the tape.
I am putting my cards in a few challenges today. Splitcoast; backgrounds, Addicted to CAS; summer and The Birthday Card Challenge in the Moxie Fab World.
Supplies: stamps; Stampin Up/ Distress inks/ Bl. Memento/ pop dots/ drywall tape

LOVE how your background came out, Karen! You may just see me borrowing this idea down the road if I can find something to approximate that grid look.
