Another card for my Stamping Saturday and this time I have been adventurous....I have been really liking the cards of late that have had some texture paste/gel added to their background so after much deliberating I took the plunge and bought me some....who know's if it is the right stuff but it worked for me!! I also picked up a new Kaisercraft Template-Tree around the same time with this technique in mind. So for Sketchbook Saturdays current challenge and for my first time playing at The Mixed Media Card Challenge I pulled them out to give them a whirl. I just used part of the tree in the corner of my card then coloured my card with Distress Inks (probably should have done this before I applied the gel...we live and learn), I also coloured the gel a bit too after it had dried and this is the end result! Very happy....I'm also adding my card to the latest challenge over at Virginia's View where the challenge is Die Cuts....thanks for stopping by...
