Hi everyone….
Waltzingmouse is having a fun party today…their Pajama Party. I made 2 versions of the same card that I am putting adding to the Challenge 3 – In the Background blog hop. Challenge 3 is to use any Waltzingmouse stamp to make a background.
I wanted to play with my distress inks so I ended up making a background using one of the smaller doilies from Dainty Doilies stamp set. I colored all of the parts of the doilies and then misted it with pearl mist. The colors really softened up and blended together. I started with the background so I didn’t really know what I was going to do with it until after I saw how it blended. I liked how the reds, purples, pinks and browns blended making me think of a fall themed card. So ended up using my Teeny Trees stamp set for the main image. I finished off the card with some silk ribbon and assembled it. Of course I couldn’t decide if I needed to anchor my tree with a base and sentiment or just leave a sentiment along the bottom of the main panel frame. You decide….I like both for different reasons.
