Tissue paper backgound ATC

On one of my ATC swapping groups, we've been given a challenge of making cards with the tissue paper background method.

For those who are not familiar with tissue backgrounds, they are soooooo simple to make, and are really effective. This is how I made mine:

Get some ATC sized card and some Tissue paper

Coat the card in PVA Glue

Scrunch your tissue paper

stick it to the card

Then finally, when dry, trim around the edges.

This is one that I made using some red tissue.

I've just sponged over it with some gold and black inks.

And thats a tissue background, told you it was easy peasy!!!

.......Which just leaves you to embellish it.

Here are a few of my finished tissue background cards:

I've just added a few embellishments, Inked

......and have even machine stitched for the very First time on my ATC's!!

( Hence the wobbly lines LOL)

Thanks for Looking!
