My last effort for days 1 and 2...Backgrounds and Reverse Backgrounds. Here is my version of Laura Sterckx's sweet ombre card. Hers was done in pinks and white embossing. I could have gone that route...but I have this huge spool of gold thread...The distress inks I used are Chipped Sapphire, Salty Ocean, and Tumbled Glass. I love the color that comes out when you mix the Salty Ocean into the Chipped Sapphire. I will have to remember that combination.
My background comes from Hero Arts - Magical. I love those dot swirls. Hero Arts is also the gold embossing power brand I used. The sequins come from Darice and Pretty Pink Posh. Sentiment is from W Plus 9. I will have to catch up with two days of lessons tomorrow.
Thanks for taking a look!
I think the gold looks really fabulous with these shades of blue, and your swirly background is so cool! Awesome card, Cat!
ReplyDeleteI never use that background stamp, but now I'm digging it out! LOVE this card, Cat!
