I had so much fun this week trying a new background technique using my lovely Copics and Tim Holtz Distress Inks. The result is just gorgeous!
To find the technique I used for this background Click here.
The image I used is a Whimsy Note by My Whimsical Little World called Spice of Life.
It was a freebie offered in the Facebook group for My Whimsical Little World.
