I made the background for this card using a technique recommended by Beverly! Thanks Beverly!
I spray three colours of frost spray mists onto watercolour paper and while it was still very wet, covered it with a piece of lightly scrunched cling wrap. Left to dry for an hour and then pulled back the cling wrap. The frost in the sprays separated and pooled where the cling wrap touched and I ended up with a very pretty and subtle design.
A stencil cut with my Silhouette Cameo was placed over my panel, and white embossing paste was spread over top. Once dry, I went over the stencil again with some white acrylic paint to highlight the embossing. A simple sentiment was stamped and heat embossed in white. And a stitched frame was added to finish the card.

Such a gorgeous card with wonderful texture and design, Loll. You obviously love CAS and that love is beautifully projected throughout your gallery. Yes, I've been taking a look at your gallery! You have a talent unlike myself to create elegant, simplistic and textured art. My compliments. Your cards give wonderful dimension to the gallery and your creativity is inspiring to so many. Beautiful gallery, Loll.
