Messy Hello

 

Today is the the 12th and it is time for another Hot Mess card. This card is #69, so we are coming to the end of 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.

For my messiness this month, I grabbed some Tim Holtz Alcohol Inks in shades of purple.  I used Yupo paper and I really like how the colors move. I die cut the inked panel and a backer with Gina K Designs Master Layouts 2.  I also picked a Gina K Designs die set called Happy Hello and cut it from Antique Gold Metallic cardstock.  The sending smiles came from my sentiment box, so I am not sure what company it is.  I added some Gold Satin Baubles from Trinity Stamps around the card.  

I really like the look of this card and hope you do too.  I also sure hope my fellow messy ladies like them too!  Here are the links to the other somewhat messy crafters:   Carol, Darlene, Jeanette and Terry. I 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 in April!
