Used white glue, FSJ Silks, and Clearview Sheets
(all other products will be listed below)
I did a Facebook Live Feed the other night on my KreatesKards Journey With Mary Director business page. The card above showcases this technique using Fun Stampers Journey (FSJ) products.
If you are reading this via e-mail, I have uploaded my live feed also to YouTube. Here's the direct link to the YouTube Video: https://youtu.be/x8YYwunFepI
The video gives step by step direction on how to create this type of background. I also did another live feed showing how to create a similar background but with glitter and texture. It's on YouTube now, but I will also showcase it on my blog this week.
Here is the second card (scalloped circle) that is shown in the video. The photo is of the front and of the inside of the card.
This card used white glue, FSJ Liquid Colors, and the Clearview Sheets.
Other FSJ products used will be listed below.
NOTE: Although I did use the thin metal dies (Journey Scallops Die Set) on the Clearview Sheets,I do NOT recommend it. They did not cut completely through and left ragged edges. They are GREAT for cardstock and cut like a dream. For the Clearview sheets, our Steel Rule dies are perfect, and we have a huge selection starting on page 308 in our main (annual) catalog.
The backgrounds using the Liquid Colors and the Re-Inkers did not dry overnight. In areas that were heavily saturated with color, the centers of the color were still slightly damp 2 days later. I covered them with card stock to protect them from seeping through to my card base. The Silks dried overnight with no problem. The white glue leaves a frosted look on the clearview sheets.
Used different colors for backing these. It changes the look of
the background and is fun to do.
