MFP's Speedy Fox & Friends Challenge 221 - Acrylic Block BG
Welcome to a new challenge at MFP's Speedy Fox & Friends blog. This week, Challenge 221, is to use an acrylic block to create your BG. There are probably several ways to create a background with an acrylic block - but the one I selected was to put two colors on my block and spritz it with water. I dried it with my hot gun and then stamped my image and sentiment. Remember, there is always a prize of a stamp set to the winner.
Card Recipe:
Stamp set: MFP's Sun and Moon
Paper: MFP White Heavy Premium 140 lb. CS; MFP Dark Night Navy CS
Ink: Tim Holtz Distress Inks Broken China and Weathered Wood
Accessories: SB Matting Basics A&B Dies; Acrylic Block; Spritzer
Hope to see you at the challenge. Thanks for dropping by. Later gator!
