With all the wooden elements in the photo, I knew I wanted to use a wood grain patterned paper for my background. Since the stacked up blocks had a whitewashed paint on them, I was inspired to add white texture paste using a 6x6 Mini Basketweave stencil by TCW. After that was dry, it was time to distress the edges by tearing then sponging with some Soft Suede ink (SU).
MFT's Accent It - Celebrate Die-Namics set has a love die which was perfect after accenting it with a puffy heart enamel sticker. A red frame (die by Reverse Confetti - All Framed Up) added some interest and then a button with twine was needed to balance out the design.
