Cards using Bokeh effect Backgrounds.

Welcome back to my blog

Today I am sharing with you something I tried for the first time yesterday. 

It is the Bokeh Effect. Something used by photographers regularly and can be achieved with ink on paper by layering colours and circles.

I have made a little tutorial for you , so you can also try this if you are feeling inspired.

As I have made a tutorial I haven't added much in the way of descriptions.

I have entered one of these cards in to Jessie Holtons #CTC008 weekly challenge

(Orange colours 'Happy Birthday')

Here is a group shot of all the cards I made using my Bokeh backgrounds

I used two different colour tones for each Bokeh effect and used those same colours for the cards bases and layers.

'Hello You'
