I made this inky background a couple weeks ago. It was created with Distress Oxides on photo paper. I layered each colour using the watercolour ink-smooshing technique and dried in between each colour. It's best to work from lightest colour to darkest. When finished, it had a dull appearance but when wiped with a baby wipe, it became vibrant and all the layers of colour were visible.
Dies: Memory Box Curved Happy Holidays, Memory Box Leeping Deer, Memory Box Twightlight Snowflakes (silver snowflake), offcuts from Memory Box Snowy Scene (white snowflakes)
Ink: Distress Oxides (Tumbled Glass, Shaded Lilac, Iced Spruce, Blueprint Sketch, more or less, I made the background a couple weeks ago)

Healing vibes being sent your way. Do not worry about commenting on the Rudolph challenges till your husbands health issues are resolved. I will wave that rule for you as I know how it is all encompassing to try to deal with a family member who is really ill.
Your card is lovely. The background sky is wonderful and I love the leaping deer.
