I thought it would be fun to create a variegated background using a Backgrounder stamp and a resist technique. Love how it turned out. Backgrounder is Art Nouveau and I love it's elegant look. The chipboard bird is a Heidi Swapp Invisibles piece. You sponge ink on it and a pre-resisted pattern becomes visible. They are so much fun. I picked it up from ellenhutson.com

Fancy schmancy,....and so very beautiful! Sometimes when there is this much on a card, it looks to busy....your card doesn't. Everything is perfectly placed. It's like a symphony for the eyes!!
