This is a real fun technique and tutorial from Audrie
my first name is Anita so chose in the A tutorials
I used 5 different shades of blue on a plastic bag, sprayed alcool over and pressed my card stock over, let it dry all night and stamped the swan and the grass only the swan's beak is colored with a marker

I love that background tutorial - it's so easy to get great results! Beautiful swan image too - I love how it fills the space, and your coloring of the beak really draws the eye to the center of the card. Well done! Thank you for playing along with my challenge for Falliday Fest!

Your background turned out fabulous and adding just the color to the beak really makes the swan stand out even though it is colored with the background!
