These backgrounds are SO much fun and very easy to do! If you haven't tried it before, it's as simple as stamping your ink pads onto a piece of acetate, spritzing it with water, and then "smooshing" your card stock down onto it....easy peasy! I used Raspberry Fizz and Harvest Gold inks for this background. I embossed in black the flower from "Doodlie-Do" (PTI) and the sentiment from WPlus9. The stripe down the left hand side is from SU!'s "Butterfly Basics" and I like how it gives an extra visual and balances out my card. A few sequins and some black and white bakers twine finished my card.
Thanks so much for stopping by today, and a special thank you to all of you who leave comments...they really do make my day! :0)
Fantastic, Marcia!! I think you have this "smooshing" technique down! I love the Doodie-Do and that you left it with the outline in black, you tied in everything so well!
ReplyDeleteOh, this is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteA gorgeous mix of pink and yellow, and the embossed black is striking with it!
ReplyDeleteMarcia, you are the maven of smooshing on acetate! OMG, I am drooling over all these cards you've been making!! The backgrounds are gorgeous, yes, but what you've done with them is sensational!! Hugs, Darnell
