Welcome to the November Totally Techniques Global Blog Hop featuring Polished Stone cards! You might have just arrived from Barbara Meyer's blog or you may be starting with me. However you arrived make sure you scroll down to the NEXT button ton continue on the hop and see what the others have made with this technique. I chose to use the Hold on to Hope stamp set and Cross of Hope Framelits for my cards – I thought the die cut crosses were the perfect image to adorn these beautiful backgrounds.
The video tutorial below will give you some great tips and show you how easy this is to make some backgrounds of your own.
You can watch the video here:

This stamp set and framelits are perfect to create all kinds of cards that you might need – including Easter, sympathy, get well and cards of HOPE.
This card featured Smokey Slate and Petal Pink reinker:
Don't you just love the detail on this cross?
My sunset card uses Real Red, Pumpkin Pie and Crushed Curry reinkers:
This was one of the best photos I could get showing the shimmer from the Wink of Stella…it's really hard to see in pictures….but trust me – it's GOR-JEE-OUS!!!
Bermuda Bay and Gorgeous Grape reinkers created this beauty:
I hope you'll give this technique a try – it's so easy and oh so spectacular!
