To begin I masked off the background to blend Distress Oxides to go behind the Tri Window Cover-Creative Cut. This was my first time trying out the Life Changing Blender Brushes. Oh my goodness! Why did I ever doubt? They are amazing for a soft, subtle background blend.

I stamped the images from Beach Chickies with Memento Tuxedo Black ink, colored with Copics and popped them up inside the windows of the Tri Window Cover die cut. I added a couple sentiments, also from Beach Chickies.
