Another CR84FN18 card!

I'm still loving these orange, yellow, and kraft colors so I sat down and made one more card for the CR84FN18 challenge!


This time I tried a new technique of using alcohol inks on vellum. I found this video by Sue on the Hero Arts Flicker site and just had to give it a try.

Inspired by Stampin Sue

I used the colors of Sunset orange and Sunshine yellow alcohol inks on the vellum. I stamped the flower using Brilliance Moonlight white and embossed with white detail powder.

Here is a close up of the flowers- you can really see the fun marbled look of the alcohol ink. 


 I used these 2 stamp sets.........and had this card made in under 30 minutes- a rather quick and easy card :)



















Now I've got a sympathy card on hand should I ever need it. This technique of using the alcohol inks on the vellum is really fun and quick- plus it looks so cool too!I think I'll try it again using some other colors and stamps.

Thanks all for stopping in and have a blessed day!

Inky Hugs........Anne
