Meet Unity's George and Scarlett. I used the unity sketch and made a rocker card. I wanted to keep it monochrome and I don't have much glitter, just a little silver, so I used the MFP tutorial to make just one wide strip of glitter on the background for George and Scarlet to stand on. To match my colour scheme I decided to try and colour it with alcohol ink.
Here's a picture of my silver glitter with some drops of raisin alcohol ink. Was a bit afraid the alcohol ink would affect the sticky on the tape but the glitter stayed in place. Some more drops of ink and the glitter is custom coloured. Perfect.
I added some drops of the alcohol ink in the background and gave it a wash with red brusho powder diluted with water. I stamped G&S on Prima patterned paper and coloured with distress inks and sharpies.
I added a bit of lace. Then I added a bit more lace. It's a rockin' wedding card.
Thanks for dropping by. Hugz
