This is for Audrie and Susan's Inspiration Challenge today. I used this as my inspiration.
My background is made by inking up a crumpled up plastic bag with Versamark and bouncing it on the cardstock, and embossing with gold. I haven't used this technique in a long time and I'm happy with the way it turned out.
TFL!
EDIT: I'm using new photo software....still trying to get my photos right.
ANOTHER EDIT: I just found out that this week's Mixability challenge was to use a plastic bag. It's complete coincidence that I used a plastic bag for my background....now I want to try it the way it's done in the mixability challenge.

Gorgeous card Jo, I was looking at the background trying to figure out if it was stamped or not when I finally read the description.... very cool technique... Beautiful
