Created for the Saturday's Workout Challenge. The background was created using alcohol inks on a craft mat, with a little blending solution. A piece of glossy cardstock was faced down on this to pick up the colour. The colours I used were denim, red and butterscotch. I then created the rest of the background by stamping in white gesso. Finally, I added a collage image and dymo text.
