IC339, Through the Trees

Photo Details

Poster: k dunbrook

hi there,
A quick and easy card for the Inspiration challenge today inspired by this coaster, http://www.bibelotshops.com/index.ph...o+Tree+Coaster
I was playing around with my Distress inks and created this bkg. by applying the inks onto my acrylic block, spraying with water then stamping onto the paper. I am determined to add some masculine cards to my stash.
Hope you like it and thanks for looking.

Love the distressed background - especially the colors and how you've layed them out. The thin black border really highlights the trees.
