Hi, I've spent the last of Mothers Day playing with some new toys.
It's my first time playing with alcohol inks, so much fun!
I'm linking up to the challenge at CASology where the cue card is metal.
I used a leftover piece of Quick Kutz metal sheet and stuck it onto some white card, then die cut Memory Box chloe stem flowers. I used a few alcohol inks on a felt pad and was amazed at the rainbow of colours that came out! The colours look way better in real life.
Using up a scrap or a snippet means I can visit the playground at Pixie's Crafty Workshop.
I'm putting another entry into the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge where the theme is spring flowers.
And another entry into Addicted to Stamps & More the theme is clean and simple.
At Time Out Challenge the theme is "Time flies love lasts"". My sentiment explains my take on the challenge, because you're special.
Materials used: Quick Kutz metal sheet; alcohol inks; Hero Arts find joy sentiment stamp; versafine ink & clear embossing powder.
Thanks for visiting, hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend,
Cathy x
