Take a deep breath. Relax.
The background of this card was made by smooshing a piece of
coated cardstock onto some wet Brusho crystals on my craft mat.
You know how you always have that leftover run off?
I hate to let it go to waste sometimes.
It made a very light background so I sprinkled a
bit of Olive Brusho crystals on top of the wet piece.
I loved all the colors that popped out!
Once dry, simple stamping was all this needed.

This is such a beautiful background using that gorgeous stamp! What a lovely verse you chose for it too. I now see another stamp I just can’t live without. Fantastic card, Bonnie.
So very beautiful, Bonnie! Love the surprise factor of those Brushos!

Such a lovely soft smooshed background for those grasses / wildflowers! Just looking at it makes me feel relaxed!
So pretty...love the soft look of the background!
Love this Bonnie. The stamp, the verse, the background; you've combined them all beautifully.
Bonnie, your background is beautiful and such a lovely landing space for the sentiment.
Such a calm and peaceful card with a beautiful sentiment Bonnie x.
I love watching those colors pop when the water hits too, Bonnie. The simple silhouette and wonderful scripture verse was all it needed to make an incredible card.
What a nifty background! This is pretty, Bonnie!
What a pretty background and beautiful wildflowers - the scripture is perfect with it

Another beautiful background with just a lovely bit of color. The silhouette flowers and verse in brown is a nice choice. Love the cardstock base in soft gold. Very soothing.

A fantastic yellow background Bonnie and I love the way Brushos always give a little other colour in the mix which is so pretty, and the wild flowers and uplifting sentiment look great in the complementary brown. x

Simply and so effective... great card Bonnie... I have a stash of mopped up backgrounds..should get to them with some silhouette stamps, thanks for the inspiration, Robyn

LOVE the colours from your smooshed leftover ink Bonnie. Sometimes they make the best backgrounds and this certainly did! Love it with brown stamped grases and lovely sentiment. xx
