Hi Everybody,This is another of those fun backgrounds and as promised I have done a video on the making of this card.
I have used the stamp set from Spellbinders Celebration Collection called Your Day and it has several stamps on the sheet
Part of the stamp set was used to create the background and this is something that you can do with any text stamps that you have in your own "Stash"
You see the thing to do is simply .... Play !! get out your stuff and see what you come up with and if you don't like it then start again.
But you may surprise yourself and end up with some thing that you really like and may want to repeat gain on another project.
The other card on the tutorial was made the same way for the background but the Wizard image is one of those from the CD The Next Big Thing from Just Inklined and I am sorry to say that the CD is no longer around.
I fussy cut him out and added him with a double layer of foam tape along the centre part of the image and he stands proud of the card for effect.
I added in extra peals to both cards for a little extra embellishment and the elephant has the Googly Eye added too.
More tomorrow ...
Hugs xx
