For today's card, I decided to do a brayered background. It is one of my favorite things to do to really highlight stamps I use in landscapes. I started with glossy paper, brayered on some blues and greens and then let the paper dry completely. I gave it a little extra time to dry because I wanted to emboss my foreground plants with black embossing powder, and I didn't want the powder to stick to the background ink.
