Round two of Alcohol Inks

  



Today is the the 12th and it is time for another Hot Mess card. This card is #66, so we are now into year #7. The idea of Hot Mess ~ Success is to Get Messy and you will have Success!  Messiness can be almost anything that we come up with--glitter, alcohol inks, glimmer glitz, sponged backgrounds, etc., anything that is a bit messy.  We are a very fun group and will post a card each month on the 12th.  The links to the other members are on my left side bar and I will also link them at the bottom at this post.






This is the third card from my November messiness.  I made three alcohol inked panels, two from white Yupo and one from Silver Yupo.  I shared the other two cards and all three panels in my post last month, so today, here is the card from the silver panel. I used various shades of green of Tim Holtz Alcohol Inks with a bit of silver added.  

For this Christmas card, I used my Penny Black Immense Noel die, cut from silver metallic cardstock.  I layered the word three times and added it to the silver glossy panel that has the green alcohol inks. The cardbase is Mossy Meadow.  I added some rhinestones around the word Noel. 




I really like the look of this card and hope you do too.  I also sure hope my fellow messy ladies like it too!  Here are the links to the other somewhat messy crafters:   Carol, Darlene, Jeanette and TerryI am sure you will enjoy seeing how everyone got messy this month and was successful in making some great cards!   Be sure to check back to see what we are up to in in 2025 as in January as we will all be back!

Barb, this is gorgeous! The background looks fabulous and the over-sized Noel is a perfect addition.

Barb, I love the deep, rich colors of green!! I think you selected the perfect font and sentiment for this gorgeous panel. The rhinestones add a great finishing touch!
