This is my second entry for the Alphabet Challenge letter N - newsprint. I used the sketch from last Wednesday for my layout.
First I created the wax paper resist background (using regular card stock, not glossy). You can find a tutorials right here: Forums at Splitcoaststampers I sponged Real Red ink over it. I added newsprint for the center background, edging it with black glitter cs followed by black glitter squares to set off the beautiful cardinal die cut that, I think, was gifted by Ann. Thank you!
Thanks for the challenges and thanks for looking.

That is a gorgeous Cardinal die cut! I love how you focused him in front of the Newsprint and black panels. Your wax paper resist base is really lovely, too!
