I recently made a bunch of blended backgrounds and decided to play with different techniques to finish them into cards.  I used the color combination of Polished Pink, Mango Melody, and Daffodil Delight.

In addition to blending the ink  with the Blending Brushes, I  added some flicks of watered down White Craft ink to this background.  I added the Meadow dies in black for a very dramatic scene.

I added some Black twine and tied on the label from the Meadows dies.   The sentiment is from the Eden's Garden set and it was embossed with White Embossing powder.  Inside of the card I added a Basic White layer with another die cut from the Meadow dies.

I will be sharing more of these blending projects in future posts.  You can go here to see another card I made starting from the same blended background.  Making these different cards starting from the same background was a lot of fun.   What's your favorite way to use a blended ink background?
