Double D - Tan Neutrals with Texture

Dear Ones~

This time over at Double D the challenge is to use Neutrals With TextureKrafts, tans, creams, beige etc - this is all about the 'Tan Neutral Family"...touches of black or white are okay. 
Texture can be anything. And we have been provided with this wonderful Mood Board for inspiration.
 
Here is my example:
 I couldn't wait to break out my Oxides for the background on this card. I used Vintage Photo and Walnut Stain and just did the Smooshing Technique. I love the organic look. Then I got out my corrigator and ran a piece of kraft paper through, after which I tore and distressed the edges with Walnut Stain Distress Ink. I also distressed the flowers and leaf die cuts from the SU Botanical Builder Framelits die set. I found a piece of wide burlap-y ribbon in my stash for an embellishment. Lots of texture going on here.

Here are the Ingredients:
GKD Sandy Beach & Ivory Card
GKD Kraft Card
Strathmore Watercolor Paper
Vintage Photo and Walnut Stain Distress Oxide Inks
Walnut Stain Distress Ink
SU Botanical Builder Framelits
Ellen Hudson Wild Garden Die
GKD Fabulous Flowers Stamp for Greeting

  5. Ah ha.... you found your paper crimper. I love that you just used a small piece and tore around the edges. The background looks like expensive marble and I always admire people who can put elements askew on a card and make it look fabulous. Every time I try it just looks like I had one too many glasses of wine. Great job.

  7. That DOX background is superb, Judy, and all the other elements tie right in. The fact that it's in neutrals makes it all really work beautifully.
