Texture Creative Expressions DT Challenge Card

To make this cards ive used some of creative expressions Dandelion Wishes Stamps, ink used was a Archival coffee ink pad used to stamp the foliage onto the the background aswell as the greeting and bird on the branch image.

The base card started out life as cream so in order to create the colour of the finished background after id stamped the foliage I use a few of my Tim holtz distress ink pads,

colours used where Walnut Stain for the all over background colour followed by Crushed Olive on all four corners, around the edges Fired Brick then finally just a touch of Black Soot as close to the edge of the card as possible to just give a extra highlight once this was done I embossed the background using one of spellbinders foliage M bossibilities to give the background a texture.

I then used one of my spellbinder dies to cut and emboss the image with greeting and the mat layer, the mat layer card is co ordinations which i then sanded to bring the colour of the core through and finally i Inked around the edges of both with Tim Holtz Fire Brick and mounted on to the card using 3d glue gel so was raised up from the card.
