Background tutorial

Hi, today I want to share my way to do backgrounds to my stamped images. I hope you understand what I write or at least get the trick by looking at these pictures. :) I colored up the cute Mushroom Fairy with Copics.

Then I choose a die to cut out the image. 

And then I tape the die to the paper so it stays in place when I roll it in my die cutting machine.

When it's cut I tape the backside to, because I want to make sure it's still when I use the die as a mask.

Then I use a distress ink tool and a distress ink pad and coloring the edges.

I like a bit brown also on the edges.

Then I use different background stamps, this one is like a splatter shape.

I stamped this with a brown shade around the edges.

Another background stamp.

Also around the edges but in a different color.

I also wanted a text beside the image. 

I have a great tip, stamp the text you want to use on a plastic bag and then you can see where the text fits.

When I feel that I'm done I take the die away and get a nice white frame around the image.

Here's the finished card, I hope you liked my tutorial and want to do your one versions of backgrounds.

Thank you for visiting today and I wish you a ODD day! ;)
