Just add Ink

Just Add Stamps is the challenge from Just Add Ink this week and here is the One Layer Card  which I made for my daughter-in-law's birthday this week. They have some fabulous pink cushions and a pink lampshade in their sitting room so I thought this might look rather nice on their mantelpiece.
I actually bought her some Mineral lip products and she was thrilled when she opened the package to see what I had bought, but inside the package were the wrong colour products. (Not what it said on the pack.) Such a nuisance to have to send it back to me and for me to exchange it and then send it back again!
Hey Ho!
The flower image is from Penny Black and the sentiment from Stampin' Up!
I masked the card to sponge the background for the image, and then overstamped with a Crafty Individuals crackle stamp in gold.

    Simply stunning! The crackle background is amazing - is it on the stamp or did you create it first then stamp over it?
