No Designer Paper at Sweet Stampin' Challenge

 Great challenge this fortnight - No Designer Paper ....

I chose to make my own background using stamps and inking





















I decided to make a vintage looking mixed media background.  I stared by stenciling Altenew's Floral Garden stencil using Chamomile, Snapdragon, Lime and Fresh Leaf ink on to some cream card stock.  Next was some background inking with Grey Denim ink with Hero Arts Antique Background Cling stamp.  Added some extra distressing  with Altenew Misty Meadows and Marshlands and deepen the edges and corners with Marshland ink.   Die cut the birdcage from Altenew Butterfly Dreams from various card stock colours.  Added a foiled butterfly from my stash. 

Do come and join us from at Sweet Stampin' Challenge - no designer paper challenge.
