I accomplished the odd texture of the background by using the Stampin Spots to incompletely ink the stamps from Great Shapes. I found that you get one look when you "dab" the spot onto the stamp and another look when you drag the spot across the stamp. Like a lot of things i make this was happenstance. I stamped a few squares on the prototype card and decided that the incomplete inking was rather desirable, though it's not what I was originally aiming for. I've learned never to envision how I want the finished product to look. My cards/pages are building processes - stamp one thing. Stamp another thing. Add a few tra la las. I quit when I'm satisfied with how the card (etc) looks. This drives my UL crazy.....
