Friendship

Hello crafters!  One of my favourite new crafty items is the Ranger Silver Sparkle Alcohol ink card.  I have used it as a base for today's card and wait until you see how pretty it is in the close up pics!  I started by applying various shades of alcohol inks to it.  I used Mermaid, Citrus, Sailboat Blue and Patina.  I laid down the colours in diagonal stripes.  Next I cut the Outer die from the Friendship All in One out of the card.  I added the Friendship main die cut in white to the top of it.  I had a little extra of the backing card so I cut out just the larger flowers and added them on top of the original with pearls in the centres.  I added mounting foam to the back to raise it and added the whole thing to a slightly larger piece of white card.  I ran double sided tape around the edge of the card and coated it with Iced Snow for a bit of bling.  I completed the card with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6"  x  7" in size.  All for now., Sue x

    Morning Sue. Wow you're so right about the sparkle alcohol ink card it's beautiful, I'm running out of so many colours of my Foundation cardstock maybe I should try a few sheets before I go mad and buy a full pack. But I love the deep shades behind your new One in a Million die, a die that can be used for all genders, you are clever. Whatever your plans for the day have a great one xxx

    Uhmmm, Ranger Silver Sparkle Alcohol ink card. This is the first I have heard of it. Amazing. Great color combination of alcohol inks on this design. And I am sure the photograph does not show up all that sparkle. Your One In One dies make quick work of making a card. Thank you for sharing. Hugs

    Hi Sue, I love these dies from your last collection and this is my favourite because of the words you have used. You have done a great job here to show us just how easy it is to make a really stunning card using just one die.
