The background is the tapestry technique which you can find a link here in the TLC: Link
I used classic blue inks then covered with VersaMark to heat emboss with clear.
The third oval for the sentiment panel is free hand cut then distressed.
The image is colored with markers. Tool distressing, paper piercing also featured.
