Hey friends! Happy Friday! Today I’m sharing a quick and easy way to create backgrounds using your gel press.

VIDEO

I have a video that you can check out down below or HERE on my Youtube channel.

For my background I’m using Gina K Designs Turquoise Sea ink but you can try any ink that you may have on hand.

Creating backgrounds with a gel press can be very addictive so I recommend having multiple panels of cardstock ready. I’m using Hammermill cardstock today on my card.

After I created my background, I used the Spring Medley embossing folder to add texture.

I then went over that texture with a flat blending brush and the Turquoise Sea ink to make the flowers pop a little off the card front.

I finished off the card with a large sentiment from the Thinking of You Big Time stamp set.

A fairly simple card but lots of interest.
