SSS Let's Chill, Retro Tiles Background

Super quick and bold card today featuring the new Retro Tiles Background from Simon's Let's Chill release.

I started by creating a fun inky background using my Distress Inks.  

Using a panel of Tim Holtz Watercolor Paper, I added ink to the panel, with yellow towards the center and then orange and some pink around the edges.

I pressed those same inks onto my craft mat, spritzed and smooshed my paper into the ink to create some fun texture.

Once I was happy with the panel and it was fully dried, it was time to stamp.


The background was stamped with Versafine.  I could have stamped repeatedly until I got a really solid inking, but for this card I wanted to keep some of that texture.

I finished the card off with an older Reverse Sentiment Strip that was popped up with foam tape.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
