Sending Hugs Blended Background

I created this card to submit to a design team opportunity for CAS on Friday (although the link goes by CAS on Sunday)... 

The background was created by blending three Distress Oxide inks in a diagonal direction with a mask around the outside of the card base. Once the inks were dry, I stamped a garden image in black and added a sentiment at the top. 

The inside of the card is also finished with a blended strip along the side and a sentiment stamped beside the strip. 

Products used are as follows:

Paper: White Cards and Envelopes (CTMH)

Stamps: Wild Blossoms (Gina K. Designs), Beautiful Inside (Altenew) 

Inks: Archival Black (CTMH), Distress Oxide Inks - Mustard Seed, Carved Pumpkin, Abandoned Coral (Ranger) 

Accessories: Rectangle Stencil (created on Cricut)

Enjoy,

Alyson
