To create this card using a February release called Faith, Hope, and Love - www.techniquejunkies.com/faith-hope-and-love-background/, I first created a background paper to stamp on. I used an alcohol ink technique I learned from Jennifer McQuire. She used a glass pan with some water in it, and then squirted a few colors of alcohol inks on the surface of the water. Then you just dip card stock in the water and pull it out quickly. You get interesting designs on your card stock. No piece of car stock will be the same. You can start fresh each time, or just reuse the water and squirt a few more drops of alcohol ink in the water.
And here is a tip: either use tweezers, or gloves to protect your hands or you will get some ink on your hands. But if that happens use some hand sanitizer right away to clean your hands. Most of the alcohol ink will come off before you wash your hands.
I then painted a few places of interest with Twinkling H2Os. I added a greeting from the Faith, Hope, Love set - www.techniquejunkies.com/faith-hope-love-set-of-7/. And did you know you can bundle both sets and save some money? http://techniquejunkies.com/faith-hope-love-bundle/
And speaking of saving money -- if you use the code TJ10Judy you can save 10% even on this bundle!!
Have a great day - and get inky!!
