Card with monoprinting

 


How to make the background:
Put some acrylic paints on a baking mat. Make some squiglies in it, and
put your CS in the paint. Lift it off, leave it to dry. Make a frame with
some post-it notes and sponge the background with several colors of
distress inks.

I am entering this card in the following challenges:
1. PDCC - colors blue and light red
2. Crafters Companion - which is anything goes

STAMPS USED:
All from Hero Arts
