Joanne challenged us to create a bg using inks, but no stamps or embossing folders. There has to be something acrylic on the card or project. You can use stamps for the main panel, but the bg must be made without stamps or embossing folders.
My bg was made using distress ink spray in London blue and postbox RED. I used the same colors on a manila tag, embossing, and then sponging on white acrylic paint. Then I used Versamark and white embossing powder on the fireworks, adding gold to all the edges. I topped it off with white ribbon, an eagle charm and brad, and gold star brads. Whew.

What an amazing work of art for a patriotic card! This turned out more than lovely!
fabulous minds think alike.......we both went to the spray inks for our background...love your tag....wonderfully done, Anne
I love this fun patriotic design with its fireworks and eagle, Anne! what a wonderful card!
Great job on this patriotic card, Anne! The spray ink makes a nice background on the card, but it looks fabulous on that tag with the added acrylic paint and white embossing powder for the fireworks. Nice touch with the eagle charm.
Love these pretty results. Great techniques and tools used on this one.
Anne, I think this is fabulous. You and Joanne made the most gorgeous looking backgrounds. My bought sprays all tend to splotch :-(. The embossed fireworks also look really wonderful. Cool card all round.
