Happy Saturday!!
Meet today's simple card. I don't make a lot of Valentines but wanted to play with the new sentiment set from Penny Black called Friendship and Love. I just love the curly font!
I just recently got some new alcohol inks and wanted to try them on Yupo paper to see what I could come up with. Yupo paper is a synthetic paper with a unique surface that many different mediums can be applied to with unusual results everytime.
I dropped the inks on the Yupo, then placed a piece of plastic wrap over the piece and set aside overnight. When I removed the wrap, it revealed this gorgeous piece of inked paper. The rich colours are amazing. I fussy cut out the heart then placed it over the scored card lines. I made those by using my Scorbug and my ScorPal.

Gorgeous results Karen from your AI's and plastic wrap. Your rich colors on your heart are stunning. Love your pretty new sentiment too. TFS my friend. BTW, which AI colors did you use?

Unbelievably beautiful colors with the Pinatas! Just got mine yesterday. Thank you for the reminder about the plastic wrap too! I can't seem to leave these alone.
Beautiful! Would love to know which colors you used. I've gone through a giant roll of plastic wrap since I started playing with it with my various inks and sprays. Unwrapping them is always a fun surprise!
That heart is so pretty!
This is dramatic and gorgeous! I bought two pads of Yupo and haven't tried it yet. Alcohol inks used to be my favorite medium, but I haven't used them for more than a year, I think. I will certainly try this! (I used this technique with ink sprays...but only during the summer when I could dry them quickly in the sun.)
Jaw on the floor stunning Karen girl.
just love the colours! You sure know how to make the heart take centre stage with your placement and background effects!
This is gorgeous! Love the effect with the plastic wrap. Maybe I finally will try my Yupo paper. Thanks for the inspiration.
Beautiful. haven't heart of Yupo paper. Thanks!
What a spectacular effect you have achieved with the plastic wrap! Love it! Fabulous card!
I love using alcohol inks on Yupo paper! I even have two of my granddaughters hooked on it! This is a technique using the plastic wrap that I haven't heard of. Gotta try it!
This is stunning!! :)

Alcohol inks and yupo are a wonderful combination Karen and I love the strong colours you have got with that pattern using cling film and the little added white heart looks so sweet and pretty, and the scored dashes and elegant sentiment in the background work beautifully. A gorgeous card. x
