Hi everyone.
This is another one of the backgrounds I made recently with regular and pearl alcohol inks, blending solution, isopropyl alcohol in a spritz bottle and a distress marker sprayer that I used to blow air to move the ink around. I also pressed some foil onto the inky tacky parts to add some extra shine.
Lots of fun!
Here's a closer look at the shimmer and shine.
I'm linking up to Country View Challenges where the theme is blue and green.
Make My Monday are celebrating their 100th edition, congratulations on reaching that awesome milestone! The theme is Thankyou.
At Addicted to Stamps & More it's clean and simple.
Mix it Up Challenge Blog has an anything goes theme with the optional twist of foiling.
I'm also linking up to Happy Little Stampers Anything goes with Dies.
Supplies:
Spellbinders rectangle dies; Poppystamps Hampstead Bloom die; Thanks die from a friend; Regular and pearl alcohol inks; yupo paper; Rebekah Meier gold foil.
Thanks for visiting,

Your card is STUNNING! I love the alcohol ink background and simple yet effective design! I love using these inks, but rarely do, due to the cost of Yupo. Thank you so much for visiting my blog! Hugs! Sara Emily

I am so loving your AI backgrounds and this is no exception. The white die cut is perfectly shown off.
This is beautiful and looks like so much fun! Makes me want to get those alcohol inks out! Love these colors and the pretty die cut! The foil adds elegance!
The colours are gorgeous and what a great way to get movement with canned air. I am going to have to get those pearl AIs .. no doubt about it! :) Beautiful card Cathy! xx

You've certainly been busy with our AI's Cathy and this is gorgeous too and the white die cut flower looks fabulous over the top, and good contrast with the black die cut sentiment. x
