I used oil pastels on my bg. I rubbed on various colors and then used gel baby oil to smooth it out. I added just a touch of stamping and some sequins and gems to it. Marilyn was a RAK from Carla...I used some distress inks to add some color to the image. TFL! Now back to other projects...

Cool card, Polly!!! Love it. Thought of you yesterday, started baking some cookies for our church cookie walk. Did you start your baking duties yet? Have a great day.

Gorgeous colour palette with your pastels, Polly. I like knowing it's an ATC and imagining the scale of this fun ATC. I like the the checkerboard stamping, too.

I love how your BG turned out Polly and what a fun image from Carla too. That sentiment totally works with Marilyn too. Thank you so much for playing along.
