A really creative approach to getting papers that will create sufficient contrast against very rich, jewel tones. Very, very useful ideas!

Thank you so much 😀

Sometimes I do pieces that are very subtle. It all depends on the focal point I want to use. They would make very nice backgrounds, adding whatever hue you feel like emphasizing. God bless

It's just nice to have them in your stash so you have them ready to use. Thanks for watching.
