I found these backgrounds on my desk in a little container in which I have been collecting backgrounds leftover from other projects. I created this background earlier this year using SU digital stamps when I was working on Valentine's cards. I decided to find another creative way to use them so I added some sequins to these two. For the first one, I added three little flower sequins which I mounted to the background just above the greeting using tiny gold brads. I used a green fine tip marker and added some leaves, swirls and dots. I watercoloured in the leaves as well as a few of the hexagons. To finish off this element I manually embossed the edges with a dots embossing folder and mounted it to a red card front. The Hello greeting is a part of an image font. For the second card, I watercoloured some of the hexagons in yellow and blue/green and the bee's body (image font). I coloured the bee wings with a clear glitter gel pen. Next, I added yellow and white sequins to some of the hexagons using small pieces of glue dot to secure them in place. Finally, I manually embossed a few aress with a dots embossing folder and mounted this large element to a blue/green card front. I will have to go find this background and print off a few more as they are great for making cards in a hurry!! Therese
