My background for this is white cardstock sponged with alcohol inks and silver mixative, applied with blending solution. After drying the inks, I embossed the tag using a Cuttlebug folder. Next I took an ink pad and rubbed it across the embossed surface. I think it makes for an interesting background.
Faye, your tag is gorgeous! I love the alcohol inks - the texture and depth of color is wonderful!

ReplyDeletePS The kick card isn't thick to post it is an ordinary card but the front page is folded over to the spine at the front, but to post you just fold it in to the normal folded card. Caz
