Tip Thursday 1/7 - Background Framing - CTMH Stitched Lattice Bg, Bloomwithgracescrapbooking

Welcome to Tip Thursday. I'm Melissa, nickname "Sunshine HoneyBee", an independent Close To My Heart CTMH Consultant/Maker, and I want to share some tips I have learned in a weekly tutorial named Tip on Thursday.

Please check out my CTMH site and order wonderful items like what I use. Please let me know if you found this helpful.

Today, I want to show you how to use a background. I used CTMH Stitched Lattice Background (which is in the Core Catalog) and placed BlueBelle cardstock behind it.

Used Bloom with Grace Scrapbooking. Practiced my coloring.
Used Tim Holtz Distress Ink walnut stain on edge of Sunflower in Boots stamped/die image.

Finished the framing with some pattern paper that has a Cork design and brown cardstock for base.
