did you play with marbles as a kid? i never actually "played" with them, i just admired the pretty colors and sorted them into groups. yes i was that kid, i liked cleaning my room...but anyways...
this card was inspired by rainbow marbles...
i love marbling with alcohol inks. it's really easy and pretty too!
all you need is a container of cold water and make sure to use a container you don't mind staining (i used a disposable aluminum pan). to the cold water, add a few drops of each color of alcohol ink.
then just dip your cardstock! any cardstock will work but i like the smooth finish of solar white.
for this card i applied a strip of painter's tape as a mask and then just dipped to my tape.
to create my sentiment, i die cut 3 white cardstock awesomes using the essentials by ellen positive word set. i used a glue pen to adhere them together.
then i cut the partial black cardstock awesome by securing a strip of black cardstock to half of the die with washi tape. i removed each small section and used a glue pen to add it to the tops of my white letters. i combined the dimensional awesome with a little avery elle sentiment.
and finally clear sequins!
thanks for stopping by!
