I have been making background papers using a gelli plate . Here is one of the cards I have made using one of the papers . To create this particular paper I used wilted violet and specked egg distress inks and a stencil designed by Joe Coogan. . The die cut frame is made using Tattered lace dies . I added die cut foliage and a butterfly and doodles a border with a fine liner . The sentiment is from a Lisa horten stamp set
