Another sparkly card for Lisa's WTUI challenge which you can find HERE.
I was tidying my desk last night and it occurred to me that this brushed silver card is most certainly sparkly - hard to capture, I've added a close-up on the challenge thread.
Various alcohol inks including the Pinata gold on the brushed silver paper. I couldn't find anywhere about stamping on it, so I risked trying, and once I heat embossed the sentiment and music, they were fine. The glossy black card was perfect for cutting the busker from. I matted the AI panel onto black card, and dry-embossed a frame into the card base.
I still think I'd rather keep the brushed silver "neat" as it comes, but it was certainly fun to try it out with the inks. It has wonderful shimmer and sparkle.

There you go. Good on you to make the jump with the silver paper!
Came out great!! It is a terrific concept-music can invoke senses of color. I am esp liking the look of moonlight on man and dog but maybe that is just the shine of the gloss paper? Cool looking!

A BOLD and BRASH alcohol background...creates such a moody atmosphere and so perfect with your silhouetted sax player! (This is a card after my heart...remember my youngest sax playing son in his jazz band era throughout his school years!)
