The background doesn’t really look like much, but it took a couple of steps to get there. I don’t love it but somebody will love getting this card. What I see and what the recipient sees are very different.
The card base is cherry red and I was going to work that background into an orange red like the sentiment card. Stand back! LoL!
I took a background stamp from Stamping Up, inked it with black distress oxide ink and placed the card on top of it. I sprayed the background with water and hit it with the heat tool. I heavily inked the background with two oxides and the one I know was Rusty Hinge. I went direct to paper and it wasn’t changing the color like I thought it would. While the ink was still wet I heat embossed it with clear powder. The embossing didn’t cover it completely but that’s okay
