More scrappy background cards!

 A couple more embossed scrappy background cards!!
For the card on the left, I trimmed my background to 4"x 5.25", added a length of vintage turquoise seam binding and glued it to a turquoise card.  I watercoloured the greeting (Mud Maven Designs), layered it onto blue and then added it to my card using 3D foam tape.  I tied a short piece of seam binding to the one on the card with one knot to simulate a bow.
For the card on the right, I trimmed my background and added a strip of purple to the top and bottom before adding two lengths of scallop lace and a pink ribbon in between.  I glued this large element to the front of a bright green card.  I watercoloured the image (Melonheadz Designs), layered it onto green and distressed the edge before adhering it over the ribbon on my card using 3D foam tape.  I added a layered punchie greeting which I created using a laser printed punchie (Word Window -SU) over a label (Modern Label - SU).
Fun cards to make and these cute little images are a perfect pairing with them.
