Made this for my parents using this week's Try a New Technique (TLC160) challenge which was to do the negative side of Cuttlebug.
I pretty much followed the technique instructions for my background which was to take my Cuttlebug embossing folder, which in my case I used the Birds and Swirls background, and open it so the negative side was facing up on my table and used my Basic Gray Classic ink pad to ink it up. I laid my card stock over the inked side closed it and ran it through my Cuttlebug.
