Using up Backgrounds - Part 2

 More backgrounds... and time to put them to use! 

These two backgrounds are rainbows - probably my favourite type of card! The first was created by inking a rainbow background on white cardstock (using Distress Oxide inks) and then die cutting the floral background. I kept the sentiment simple to keep the focus on the background. The word "smile" was stacked a few times and brushed with the Clear Shimmer Brush. I coloured and added some crystal gems around the card to finish it off. 

The chevron card background was created with a pull apart stamp, also using Distress Oxide inks. Again, the sentiment was kept simple. I added some coordinating sequins along the inked chevon sections as well.
