Hi ladies its been a beautiful sunny day here but still very cold so I needed another bright card to cheer me up. I have at last been successful with Shari's Layered background technique, after quite a few attempts hitting the bin this is the card I ended up with. Its still not perfect but I love the reds and purples.
Supplies:-Stamps by Hero Arts CL430 Real Garden Petals, CL383 Antique Engravings , S5507 Envelope pattern. Distress inks:- Old Paper, Barn Door, Crushed Olive, Dusty Concord.
Love this effect! Beautiful card Sally, Jo x
