Enjoy an Egg-Cellent Easter - Brokeh Background

Spring is in the air, and I felt like making a card with a spring-like background, and I used the Bohek technique to do this.  I used a tutorial from splitcoast stampers to create the background.

The colours of reinkers I used:  Daffodil Delight, Coastal Cabana, and Bermuda Bay.



After creating the background and applying the Whisper White ink with a template I made using the Circles Framelits on a piece of Window sheet, the focal image water colour paper was matted with first Daffodil Delight and then Bermuda Bay cardstock and then adhered to a Whisper White base.

The sentiment is from "For Peeps Sake" and stamped onto Vellum cardstock with Black Stazon ink and die cut using the Banner Framelits. Another sentiment was stamped onto Daffodil Delight cardstock and the work "Egg-cellent" was cut out and attached to the sentiment on the vellum using dimensionals. The banner was attached to the front of the card using vellum tape.
A piece of 1/4" Daffodil Delight cotton ribbon was wound around the left side and a ribbon added using a glue dot.

The tiny daffodils were made using 2 punches:  Petite Petal punch and Boho Blossom punch.  The edges were sponged with Hello Honey ink, and attached with glue dots.
