My stamping adventures

fun with AI's

  

Yes, I got out my alcohol inks!  haven't played with them in ages and forgot how much fun they are because you are never sure what your background will look like.  besides the fact you get  inky!  and that is always fun.
 I did a 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" piece of glossy cardstock and ended up making two cards.  I used specific colors so I could enter one of my cards in a monthly challenge and ended up with another card that fit another challenge.  For my card on the left I used a big image that didn't fit on my card so I cut off one of the jokers and foam mounted him on the card standing by himself.  hard to see in photo but I used some leftover ribbon that is irridescent and beautiful in person....actually used the rest of it on my second card to the right.  Also got out my Nestabilitie dies for the shapes on my cards....have to love the ease of using Nestabilities. 
entering in the following challenges:
1.  Magenta July challenge - color combo pinks, purples, blue
2.  One stop craft challenge #235 - make your own background

card details:
all images by  Magenta style rubberstamps
Ranger - alcohol inks and archival jet black ink pad
