My card using Alcohol Pearls Inks on Vellum, Stamping and Die Cuts.

Loving our host Coni's Alcohol Ink on Vellum June Challengeđź’• 
I used Ranger Alcohol Pearls Inks on vellum.  I dropped inks onto a piece of SU Vellum Cardstock and moved ink around by tilting vellum until I was happy with background.

Next die cut one area of piece using Memory Box Stitched Rectangle Die Cut.
Next attached to SU 100# Basic White cardstock using Connect Glue.
Weighed down over night with large acrylic block to help flatten.

Then die cut Alexandra Renke Snowdrops flowers 4 times and stacked using Glue.
Let die cut flowers dry and attached to vellum image .

Stamped Simon Says Stamp Hello from "Bouquets of Thanks" and SSS "Thoughtful Messages Always" tiny hearts using archival jet black ink onto scrap of SU Basic White 100# cardstock. 
Colored hearts with Zigs.

Then attached sentiment to main image.  Added sequins to image and attached to 
100# card base with Connect Glue and Done! 
 I wish you could see the shine from the Alcohol Pearls Inks.  So pretty!

You still have until the 24th to play along.
 
Love and Hugs...hope you are staying cool....

  1. This has to be my favorite die of all time and I just love how you showcased it against the dramatic stitched vellum panel. Exactly matched it with your sentiment and the perfect amount of glimmer.

  3. Love that background in pastels, Nancy. This challenge reminds me to drag mine out again. Love that snow drop die too! I too would never have thought to use vellum with alcohol inks. I wondered what to do with that drawer full of sample vellum my son gave to me.

  14. Your pearl AI vellum background is gorgeous, Nancy! Love the mix of colors! The dimension of the pretty snowdrops makes them stand out, and I love the contrast between the white die-cuts and the background with various colors and ink-spread patterns. Coloring the hearts with matching zig inks is a really nice touch!
