Hi.
A birthday card for my Dad. It was inspired by a couple of challenges - Freshly Made Sketches, and The Male Room Challenge.
I was recently gifted a pad of the wonderful Craft Papers Ink Drops in Vivid. The look of Alcohol inks without the mess. The pad is full of gorgeous colors. I picked a sheet and cut 3 - 1.5 inch squares. The Dad came from Altenew's Inline Alpha dies. The leaves are from SSS; Etched Laurel and the base was embossed with SU's wood planks folder.
Thanks so much for visiting.

Oh, my, this is striking, Cat! Wow, wow! Now I see another SU folder I'd like to order. I love the paper and how it is such fabulously gorgeous contrast with the white. I do have some paper like this, maybe the same, not sure, but it's a fabulous alternative to AI inks which I never got started with, amazing as they are. Really awesome Dad card!
Oh I LOVE this, Cat! This is fantastic -- all that white, yet has its own intrique and then the beautiful colors -- really great!
Wow--one of my favorite cards!
this looks amazing, I bet your dad loved it and how amazing to get that lovely AI look without all the trauma and the smell. The embossed background is perfect too xx
That paper is very eye-catching. Great colors and textures on this card!
