I've had fun lately playing with alcohol inks.
I did several panels using the Alcohol Ink Smoosh technique on Yupo paper
that Loll shared with us.
This Simon Says Stamp Stitched Heart Collage Die
is perfect for showing off these backgrounds.
You'll probably be seeing more cards using this die and the smooshed Yupo.
I made lots!
This week's Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge is
THE COLOR OF LOVE
YOUNG AT HEART
Enjoy!
