Good Morning
Sending you lots of Happy Thoughts today.
Again, I have been going through my stash of backgrounds....that's how this card was born.
So here's what I did to create my card.
- I began making my card by first looking through my stash of inky backgrounds. I found this green one that I think I had used some Distress Oxide inks to create. That's guessing though but I think I may have used some Cracked Pistachio and some Peeled Paint??
- I placed the inked piece into the Typewriter Embossing folder and ran it through my Spellbinder machine.
- I removed the embossed piece from the folder and sanded off the front to reveal the white of the letters. It is a simple way to add some distressing and a lot of interest too.
- I went back into my stash, looking for another inked background that would go with the green. I found this one that I think I had played around with trying some marbling? I die-cut the flowers using the Brushstroke Flowers 1 and assembled them as there are a few different pieces involved.
- I mounted the flowers over the typewriter background, overlapping them a bit with pop dots.
- I stamped the sentiment strip with some black Versafine ink and pop dotted that over the flowers.
- I mounted it onto a heavy white card base.
Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.
