Background 2

 I used the last background I had to make another birthday card I needed, this time I used some stickers and ephemera to finish off the card. The butterfly was vellum with gold embossing, I took a marker and colored the back of the vellum so it would stand out a little more.


  • Miss Elizabeth - Sunflower stickers
  • American Crafts - Art Journaling ephemera ( Tag & Butterfly)
  • Simon Says - Birthday sentiment 
  • Spool o Ribbon

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today,

Connie

Oooh, more gorgeousness! I was thinking about this background technique today. Getting eager to try it after Christmas cards are done. I have lots of tissue paper! It's really pretty with your butterfly and sunflowers!

Such a lovely card, Connie! The use of vellum with gold embossing for the butterfly is a beautiful touch. I love how you incorporated the sunflower stickers and ephemera – it adds such a warm, personal feel. Great work!

Your birthday card is beautiful! The background you created with the last of your stash is so rich and vibrant. The vellum butterfly with gold embossing, colored on the back, adds a lovely touch. The sunflower stickers and art journaling ephemera complete the design perfectly.
