Elegant Alcohol Inked Card
I’m a clean and simple cardmaker – that’s just who I am! I love to use a few products on one card and really make them shine, so I mixed a stamp and die set from i-crafter on a pretty background!
Yellow and brown are my favorite colors – they were even my wedding colors! They remind me of sunshine and sunflowers! And mix in a little bit of gold you have an instantly elegant color combination!
The background was created with a few colors of alcohol inks. I love using alcohol inks for backgrounds! It’s easy and fluid and all kinds of amazing! I used some gold foil cardstock from my stash and die cut a few leaves, the large flower, and some center embellishments from the Flower Bursts Die Set. I adhered them to my card and popped up the centers of the petals. I love this feature of the Flower Bursts Die Set!
I wanted to have a simple, elegant sentiment to finish my card. I used the “you amaze me” sentiment from the Amaze Me stamp set and heat embossed it with white powder. This stamp set is actually a maze themed stamp set, but I find myself reaching for this punny sentiment for a lot of my cards. Thanks for joining me today!
This is gorgeous Lynnea!
