demonstrating her technique for Bokeh Made Easy. I finally had a chance to try it. She's right, it is easy!

Oh, great now I'm never going to get dinner started.
I created my background with Distress Ink in 3 colors
smooshed onto my craft sheet and spritzed with water.
I created a stencil using dies from several circle dies. I added white ink over top of my dried background. Loved the look! I decided {once my ink was completely dry} to gold emboss my sentiment and also emboss the edges.
