Playing with Alcohol Inks

There's exciting news at Gingersnaps today - a new Design Team call! It's been six months since the last one - where does the time go? If you're looking to have some creative fun on an easy going and supportive team, then check it out!

Here's a card I made just for fun - that doesn't happen a lot these days! I was playing with alcohol inks and used the Alcohol Ink Press technique from the TJs newsletter (April/May 07). It didn't smoosh as well as this card, so I gave it a quick spritz with some Ranger's Blending Solution and it created this speckled effect.

I love I Brake for Stamps collage image - it's the first time I've used it and I'll definitely be using it again!

Supplies:

• Stamps: I Brake for Stamps, sentiment from Stampin' Up!
• Cardstock: Fabriano watercolor cards, acetate, whisper white, basic black
• Ink: Alcohol inks - Stream & Wild Plum, Black Stazon, blending solution
• Accessories: flat black pearls
• Tools: tab punch
