Acrylic Block Stamping

Using your acrylic blocks for applying ink 
for a background will create a unique look for our cards.
I used Tim Holtz Distress Inks for use with the Pears set from MFPSS. 
Stamp with acrylic blocks and join us for this week's challenge
on the MFPSS Blog.
Beware!  This "new-to-me" technique is addicting!

Great job on the background technique Kren, it's very effective. I love how you've chosen lots of yellows and oranges with just a hint of grey thrown in to add some extra interest. The pear stamp you used is fabulous too!
Cheers,
Beccy
