I came across this background technique and decided to play a bit... From Paper Artsy (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7nujTk7tGzM&feature=share). I made a background with a mesh type stencil as well, but that's for another day... I love the effect.
And then I was looking at my challenge list and started adding this and that BIG GRIN. For a change I didn't do anything on the inside this time. Maybe one day...You can see all the details and descriptions as well as instructions/colors and more pics for the technique by clicking on any card image. Enjoy
I'm using one of the Elizabeth Craft Designs dies "Friends", also available on Quietfire Design HERE
And I'm using a quote stamps from Quietfire Design "Hold a True Friend..."

I love your background creation as well as the the rest f your for. It is interesting that we were on the same wave length as I posted about friends, too, with a digital collage. The 3D nature to this artwork is so nice and I love all the different things you used. So nice.
