Happy Birthday



I have just recently tried Alcohol Inks and I am in love. I have just learned to do the alcohol ink lift technique and had to squeak in at the last minute to join in the CAS Mix Up July 2019 Challenge. For my card, I used the Alcohol Ink Lift technique, Alcohol Inks, Yupo paper and Stamping.

I wish I could buy Yupo paper in bulk so I could make a million projects with this technique. If you know of a source, please do let me know. I LOVE doing this. Thank you Jennifer McGuire and Inklipse for your tutorials.

So gorgeous. I love how you limited the area of alcohol inks, leaving lots of white space as a contrast. The "alcohol lifted" images are stunning! What a fabulous card. Thanks for joining us at Addicted to Stamps and More!
