Manly Monday Black Background Music card



I made this background using thin patterned paper and an old Fiskars texture plate. From there I tested different red Copic markers on it to see if they needed to be refilled. Then I thought it was a good idea to go direct to paper with Black Soot distress oxide. That is a juicy ink pad and it saturated the paper all the way through. 
The image was cut out, and not very well from a patterned paper by Feature Art in Australia. I had to go around the edges with a dark grey Couture Creations alcohol marker to make them look even. 
The sentiment is an old rubber cling stamp by Fiskars. I stamped it out with Versa Fine black ink. The stars are from a birthday present die that I found with no packaging.
These cards are going out for donation.
Thanks for looking. HAGD! 
I’ve been using this challenge to make and use products in different ways that I haven’t before. Idk if my projects are exactly right for this challenge but it’s helping my creative block.
