I made my background by using a stencil and embossing powders. First I laid the stencil over white card stock and used a finger dauber to apply clear Versa Mark ink into the openings. I took off the stencil and added 3 different colors of embossing powder over the card stock and heat set it. I used glitter, metallic and opaque embossing powders.

Dies:  Stitched Oval - Gina Marie
Small Oval - Spellbinders
Stencil:  Flower Bursts - Art Anthology
Embossing Powders:  Sparkle N Sprinkle
