Birthday Cards- Stick it Down

 Hello! I have a couple of cards to share today! I played some more with the alcohol ink lift off technique for these cards. I was inspired by the current card sketch at Stick It Down:
I started by making my background using alcohol inks on yupo paper. I just dropped the inks on and tried to create the diagonal with the colors. Once the ink was dry, I used a Simon Says Stamp background stamp to lift off the ink. I stamped it onto light purple cardstock (which I used for the second card in this post). I used a scalloped circle punch for the center piece. For the sentiment, I lifted off color from the center of this panel and stamped it onto my punched piece. I then attached the circle with foam tape over where I lifted the ink. To finish off the card, I glued on some coordinating sequins.

For my second card, I used the panel that I had stamped with the ink from the card above. I cut it downn to size. I then took the center section of the background stamp (which pops out) and stamped with Versamark ink and heat embossed it with glitter embossing powder. I took one off the scraps that were trimmed of the above panel and picked up the ink for the cupcake. I finished it if with some glitter glue.
I am really loving using the lift off ink and the beautiful results it provides!
