Stephanie found a site called Persona Jewelry which features lovely glass, silver and enameled beads and charms....ala Pandora. I chose one called BALTIC SEASIDE for my background inspiration.
Friday was a fun-filled, but busy day for me so I decided to work the MIX25 and F4A178 into my card. I gave metallic silver paper a wash of white acrylic paint, then pressed a stencil featuring circles(dots) into the wet paint(F4A). Mr. Huey sprays were next and then I started daubing on Tim Holtz's Distress Stains. Finally I did some partial stamping with a Hero sketchy circle image in tones of gray. There is a soft silvery sheen IRL, but, of course, my meager photographic skills did not capture it.

Really pretty background! I don't know why I always over complicate things, this is really nice. Great background and the simple white die cut really stands out!
