Hello and happy Mother’s Day! I am sharing a card today with the Keep Truckin’ Bundle from this month’s Sweet ‘n Sassy Stamps release. I also used a fun technique to create my dirt background. I fussy cut my images but the dies are on my list.

For the dirt layers, I used the old Faux Leather technique. I crumpled a piece of kraft colored cardstock several times to break up the fibers, then I mostly smoothed it out and peeled it in half to get two textured pieces. I lightly swiped an ink cube over it in spots (not necessary to do though), then tore the second piece and layered it over the first. It’s hard to show the texture in a photograph. You really need to try it!

Here’s the inside of the card…

Have a great week!
