Mother of Pearl
I saw this technique about a week ago and I have just now been able to try it. I enjoyed making this background and it is very easy. Here are the supplies you will need.

Take your pallet and squeeze some paint on it. I used a light gold color. Squish up your saran wrap or bubble wrap, dip it in the paint and pounce lightly all over the glossy card stock. Let the paint dry. Take a light color ink pad, I used a soft lavender, ( light pink or blue is good too ) and brayered over the glossy card stock. You will have an elegant, shimmery background. The first picture shows the background by itself and the second is the card I made with it.

I did this a long time ago and had forgotten it completely! What a beautiful card too! I love your flower! What stamp did you use April? A really gorgeous card!
This is an Anna Griffin stamp. I have never used it until now!
This is beautiful April. I am glad you could join us for this month's blog hop. Good Luck.
What a super technique! Your card is stunning!
