Good morning! Jess here with an alcohol inked card for our current Happy Little Critters challenge!
To start I stamped the adorable otters from Winter Otter with Versafine black ink and heat-embossed them with clear embossing powder. I colored them with Copic markers and then die-cut them with the coordinating dies. I also stamped the sentiment onto Black Licorice cardstock with Clear Embossing Ink and heat-embossed them with white embossing powder. I trimmed those down to thin labels and set them aside while I worked on the background.
Next I created a background by pouring a little Copic blending solution onto a piece of Yupo paper. Then I added drops of B60, B63, and B66 Copic refills and tilted the paper until the drops blended together and ran off the edge of the page. I thought this created a really pretty ocean for my otters! Once it dried completely I added thin lines of glue on the alcohol ink and sprinkled them with Prisma glitter. Finally I added my otters and sentiment with foam mounting tape and then added a little Prisma and Chunky glitter to the otters’ scarves to finish the card!
And that’s it! You have one more week to get crafty and I can’t wait to see your happy little critters! Thanks so much for stopping by and have a fabulous weekend!
