I started this yesterday for the MIX Challenge, but didn't finish. So when I saw THIS picture for the Inspiration Challenge, I colored this fabulous orange blossom image, added some of the same shabby white embossing enamel to it & added it to my mono print background. I used the Mono Printing Tutorialfor the background.
After I made my mono print bg using pigment inks, stencils & stamps, I added some of the shabby white embossing powder then did the out of the box using a rectangle die. on the orange blossom image. The little criss crossed strips are just pieces that were trimmed off.
Thanks so much for looking! Closeups & the colors of Copics I used are on my blog: The Write Stuff
