Alcohol Ink Background card 2

 





Good Thursday Morning Ladies, 

Thank you for your lovely supportive messages yesterday,   I got through the day although it did feel very long though and unbeknown to me I have the same situation today 😔

I created a many layered journal page, using some Tim Holtz Ephemera that I have had for a good 10 years!  Then I used one of the Alcohol ink backgrounds that I made last week to make a card. 

This is the background, I used a stencil with some Alcohol Lift ink to create it.  

I cut part of it and used it behind a card front that I used a Tim Holtz background die to cut a decorative corner piece out of.  I raised the white card with foam pads cut into strips.  I used the remainder of the background to die cut a butterfly and the 'hello' sentiment. 


I am relieved to have found a way to use the background as I thought it was too busy for most designs. 

I hope that you all have a great Thursday,  

Love and hugs to all,  

Sandra xxx
