Love and Hugs with Alcohol Inks

Hi, everyone!  This week's Featured Stamper over at Splitcoast is Crystal Komara aka crykomara.....congrats, Crystal!!!  Crystal had several awesome cards in her gallery on which she used alcohol inks.....I chose this awesome design to case today so that I could practice with my alcohol inks.  I also loved the clever layout with the vellum circle and die cuts.  For my card, I began by adding pink, purple, teal, pearl, and gold alcohol inks to Yupo paper, blended them with the mixative, cut the panel with the ODBD Custom Pierced Rectangles Dies, added the vellum circle which was cut with the ODBD Custom Pierced Circles Dies, trimmed the edge, then matted the panel in eggplant. Gold metallic cardstock was used to die cut the larger rectangle, the butterfly from the ODBD Custom Bitty Butterflies Dies, and the 'hugs' from the ODBD 'Hugs' Stamp/Die Duos set.  Gold heart sequins were added to coordinate with the other gold touches.

Thanks for visiting!

Blessings,
