Sponged Background
Pull out your new lace tape and use it as a mask to create one of a kind backgrounds. I started with a Whisper White panel, then added three strips of the Lace Tape, and then sponged Raspberry Ripple, Summer Starfruit, and Primrose Petal ink over the tape. For a bit a glisten I sponged Illuminate ink all over, let it dry, and then removed the tape. YOu can see that I was inspired by the color challenge over at Create with Connie and Mary for my rich and intense palette of hues. These are not my typical colors, but that's what I love about challenges--they take you out of your norm and push you to develop your style.
