A couple of weeks ago I decided to have a play with some inky backgrounds using various ink pads including Distress Oxides, and some stencils. It didn't turn out quite as I wanted, in fact I nearly threw it away but instead left it for a couple of days.
I still wasn't happy with it but added some stamping using a Visible Image set - Tomorrow Doesn't Exist, then layered it up using some grey and black mats on a large square white card blank. The finished card definitely looked better.
Stamping Sensations want to see Colour on their entries this month and this certainly has some colour.
A great background Sue - and thanks for sharing with us at Stamping Sensations!
