Every so often, when I get to card class, one of the gals has a goodie for me. Not so long ago, Judie asked me if I could use a negative she had left after cutting trees on her cricut. I quickly snatched that baby right up and tucked it safely into my craft bag. With a dauber, some ponderosa pine ink, a snow flurry stamp, versamark and snow embossing powder, I had a background for this card in no time at all.
Oh, I forgot to mention that Day #17 at Beccy's Place Month of Holiday Cards Challenge is all about Backgrounds.
