I had fun a week ago at a Scrapbook retreat making backgrounds with Distress Oxide Inks. I made this to put a floral image on- thinking specifically of this Gina K image. I colored with Copics and fussy cut out the image. I added some dimension by curling the leaves with a quilling pointy tool I have. A couple of the blooms are up on dimensionals.
The sentiment is stamped and black embossed. I also stamped a Happy Birthday on the inside. I just love using the Distress Oxide inks- they blend so beautifully!
