This time I made a card. with a special technique for the background. Using the new collection: "This Lovely Life" by Annette Green   I really love this layered butterfly from the new collection. I've embossed the body of the butterfly and the text "Anniversary". The background is made with toilet paper. Moisturize it with water and layering it up. Then add it to the die cut folder and emboss it in your machine. Let it dry a night...   I've added some distress ink to the process for the effect you see on the photo's.   For the card I used the other side of the embossed paper.     I colored the leaves with distress ink as well as the background. Then stroke with the stamp pad itself over the paper. Now you see the lines of the leaves.
