Stamping with backgrounds


I used some of the marbling and alpha/numeric backgrounds that I recently created.  I stamped the T!m image with black stazon onto the marbled background and tore around the edges.  I stamped the word imagine down the right hand side and over stamped it with weathered wood distress ink to give it a shadowed look.  Once mounted onto another piece of torn background I used the coffee stains stamp with black distress ink on the top right and bottom left corners to blend both pieces together.  I threaded cream ribbon through some of the holes where the page had been torn from the pink pig sketchbook.
