I wasn't sure what I wanted to make at first, and then I remembered some test pieces I made when I was playing around with alcohol inks for a project for Papercrafts TV last month. I'd never used alcohol inks before, just because I'd not got round to buying any yet, so this piece was just me playing around to see what I could do with them.
So I've used a piece of glossy card that I'd already created the inky background on, added a Flourishes stamp and then sprayed it all with fabulous Goosebumps spray - although you can't see that in the pic. Sentiment is Stampin' Up and the pearls are from my stash.
I'm also entering my card for the following challenges:
- Creative Card Crew - minimalistic
- One Stitch At A Time - anything goes
- Pile It On - anything with 'p' (pearls, pink)
Well I've had a very busy day, and we're running late with everything because Morgan had a party to go to after school. So I'll keep this short so I can have some time for commenting, will catch up properly tomorrow :o)

Oooh Lisa this is so pretty, I adore the background you created and the image is really sweet. I like how you picked up the colours with your pearls too.
