CAS Mix Up Alcohol Ink Lift

Playing in Bonnie's awesome Alcohol Ink Lift challenge again:-)
There are video tutorials and gorgeous samples by the DT and GD!



Alcohol Ink Lift + Stamping + Die Cut

I was happy to find this beautiful Alcohol Ink background in my stash.
I used Rangers: Sunshine Yellow, Sunset Orange, Raspberry and Wild Plum inks.
Dropping inks onto Yupo paper and using Blending Solution to move the inks.

I die cut my piece with a SU Square die cut.
Placed in MISTI and inked Magenta C0705N Leaves with Alcohol Ink Lift.
Then stamped image in MISTI.  Let air dry and buffed with paper towel.
Repeated process 2 or 3 more times drying and buffing each time.

Loved how the paper towel lifted off the color from the leaf for a beautiful image.
Then stamped SSS sentiment in MISTI with Versafine black ink 
and heat embossed with SU Clear EB powder.

Popped up image and sentiment with White Craft foam
attaching with gina k Connect Glue and attached to Gemund Woodland 110# CS.

Added sequins and Done!  Loved the Results:-)

Thank you again Bonnie for an awesome challenge.
You have until the 24th to play along. Hugs...

  4. What a gorgeous subtle lift of ink on your beautiful wood grain background in that gorgeous color. That texture adds so much to the card! I need to remember to use my embossing folders. Thanks for the inspiration.
