TLC906 - Camfouflage Background- 07/04/2022

Happy Independence day to all of you celebrating today!
I did have a different challenge in mind, but in view of the fact that some of you may have family stuff to do, I went for a quick and easy option.
I remember a camo challenge from HYCCT where I used irregular offcuts from rubber stamps to created a background, and I remember one from Lyn as a TLC where we were to take a small image stamp and repeatedly stamp it for a background - but today I am specifically directing you to the Camouflage Background Tutorial here: https://www.splitcoaststampers.com/r...agebackground/

It's really wrinkled (as opposed to wrinkle free) distress repeated several times, a lighter and darker shade of two different colours and a lot of wrinkling and crinkling. The first time I remember trying wrinkled distress was for a little safari bag that Markie's Mom shared on her blog, and I made one for DH which still sits on one of our shelves (Safari Bag. by Cook22 at Splitcoaststampers).

Kelly's tutorial example is real army colours and quite a masculine look. In my sample I switched the browns and greens for greens and blues and went floral. So long as your colours have some contrast, feel free to use two shades of any two colours you like. You could also start with coloured cardstock in a pale shade, if you wanted. I flattened mine out simply by putting it through the Big Shot.

Remember to add your card to the Tutorial Spotlight gallery by choosing Technique Spotlight from the first dropdown menu, and Camouflage Background from the second menu.

Great Challenge, Sabrina! It was fun to make Camouflage a different way. I liked how quick it was.
