AWOW New to me Technique

 

Hello friends!! Today we are playing with techniques!

So I chose a sketch and did it 3 ways playing with the background.

This is a techinique that you can get a bunch of cards made quickly or a way to make a few cards that look very different but you don't have to think so hard because you are using the same layout.

The first card is a solid piece of dsp cut 3 x 4", then I added the circle the gorgeous birs and embellishments.


Next I took that same 3 x 4" piece of dsp and cut it into 3" strips, added the same circle and embellishments.  Then added a penguin to go with the dsp.


For my last card I chose to use cardstock, I stamped snowflakes all over it using the technique of using the same ink and cardstock.  Petal Pink went beautifully with this snowman.  I cut it into 1" strips then blended all the edges.  For my embellishments I went with sparkly ribbon, added a few snowflakes from the One of a Kind bundle and there you have it.


3 cards with the same basic layout using the technique of changing up the background.
I hope you like my cards and you keep hopping to see all the gorgeous techniques the other friends from around the world are using.
