For this card I stamped the script background with black archival ink on white cardstock and then I stamped the swirl from the SU Baroque Motifs set ink versamark and heat embossed it with clear embossing powder. Finally I laid brushed corduroy, antique linen and faded jeans distress inks on my craft sheet and ran the background piece through the inks.
The quote is from the Quotopia set by Inque Boutique. I stamped it with brown chalk ink and added some antique linen distress ink around the edge of the panel. The flowers are also stamped in chalk ink then cut out and mounted with dimensionals.

This is stunning! I love the way you enhanced the background and love that sentiment.
