Just Because
Hi bloggers! I started with a large piece of Yupo card for the background. I used an assortment of alcohol inks randomly all over it. I used Sailboat Blue, Sunshine Yellow, Amethyst, Intrique, Sublime and Deception Alcohol inks. Next I used the Alice die to cut it randomly into a piece of white card. I glued them together so the alcohol inks showed through the die cut areas. I cut the Just Because sentiment in black and added it to a white shadow backing piece and attached it at the bottom of the card. The card was completed with white and black mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 8 1/4" x 9 1/4" in size.

What a lovely colourful card, like June I immediately thought fireworks! Thank you Sue.
ReplyDeleteI suppose if you don't have alcohol inks you could use inks and clear embossing powder to achieve the same effect. Thanks for sharing. WakeyL
