This is for Lydia's challenge, as well as being inspired by the colors in this image on our inspiration site today. I am so drawn to color - and the alcohol inks seemed to match so beautifully.
I have been having lots of fun smooshing with my alcohol inks on yupo paper - thanks to videos from Loll Thompson !
After creating this dramatic bg, I took a panel that was exactly the same size as my card front, die cut the cattails scene (Graceful Cattails Die) in this panel, stamped the sentiment, then backed this panel with my bg and adhered both to the card front.

Wow! Beautiful color with the alcohol inks! I actually have a few alcohol inks and yupo paper but have yet to try them out. Funny though, I was introduced to alcohol inks eons ago back in 2002. The scrap and stamp store where I worked had a super talented gal that taught these classes...I just didn't do quite as well as others. I'm going to have to get mine out! You've inspired me!!
