Created for the limited supplies challenge. Now if I could have this paper printed and sell it, it might be worth the time and effort I put into creating it. I'm not even sure I'll remember everything I did to this poor piece of paper.
I started with crinkled chalks, added some partial background images (french script & a crackle background), did some direct to paper with pale plum ink, added a number of different stamped images, and sponged the edges. The main image is colored with prismacolor pencils and gamsol and is popped up. There is piercing in the upper right corner of the card.
