I made this card a month or so ago so I will try to remember what I did for the background. Pretty sure I squeezed out distress stains including a metallic stain on my craft mat then sprayed the inks with water. took a piece of cardstock and dragged it through the inks and let it dry. next I stamped the seaweed, masked it and stamped Shello, got out my trusty Prisma color pencils to add a bit more color. Cut the stamped card to size, edged with Krylon gold leafing pen then layered onto a piece of black glitter paper I picked up at craft store. Layered the stamped piece onto a note card...stamped some more seaweed then added the tag with saying. Can't you just see Shello swimming on the beach?
