Do you finger stamp?
Sometimes acrylic blocks can get in the way and limit your stamping but when you stick a clear stamp to your finger and start stamping you can get close to the creases and cover more area!
I did that with the Letter Box Post stamps from @ardencreativestudio
Then I added some broken China oxide splashes before adding the Bird Song Printable Transfers and Filmstrip printable Transfers from katiepertietdesigns.com that I printed onto washi sticker paper and fussy cut before adding to my page
The Distressed Diamonds Stencil from @ardencreativestudio with some Fiber Paste was just what I needed to add a little more texture to my page
Then went in with some watercolors for more color and definition of the stencil before adding a printable sentiment from katiepertietdesigns.com that I trimmed with shears for a torn edge and then called it done.
Simple as that!

Double DippingâŚ
âŚinto my try of magicals. Had to keep dipping to not waste my marvelous magicals and this spotty background texture was just perfect for a lightly layered card design
The Garden Chronicles Essentials Rubons have the most perfect handwriting rubons that helped to tie this design together with a few more rubons and ephemera sentiment then mounting it all onto Pitch Black colored card stock from @ardencreativestudio
