SSS October Card Kit: Painted Printable & Giveaway

Hi everyone!

I'm popping by to share a final card featuring the Simon Says Stamp October Card Kit.


For today's card I took one of the exclusive Gina K printables from the kit and painted the image with the alcohol inks that came in the kit as well. I put a few drops of each ink on my craft sheet, added a bit of blending solution, and used a paint brush to paint the floral image. I then trimmed the sides down and added some of Simon's Moonshine Confetti. I took a strip of Simon's Burnt Orange Cardstock and ran some scoring tape down the edge of it before placed some of the Gina K Sweet Mango Foiling over top. It stuck to the tape creating a foiled strip.

Sarah, I am in awe... I love how you painted this with the alcohol inks!!! So cool! I never thought to do that and this just opens up so many possibilities! I have so many colors from years ago when alcohol inks were big but I hardly put a dent in them so I'm thrilled they are making a come back and even more thrilled that you just showed me a NEW way to use them!!! Brilliant... and beautiful :-) Thanks for the inspiration. I can't wait to give it a go!
