Alcohol Ink Lift & Stencils

Hi there. This card I'm sharing is inspired by the theme at CAS Mix Up & CAS Stencil challenges.




I didn't have the re-inker for the Alcohol Lift Ink, so I used Jaquard Claro, which is a blending solution, to remove the ink through the stencil. It was a bit too juicy for this stencil, so it looks a bit messy. But that's ok, because it's Mixed Media:) 

I decided to stamp the bird and fussy cut from another AI background.

Stamps: Dina Wakely Scribbly Bird Cousins
Dies: Kaisercraft Sketched Rectangle Frame; Simon Says Stamp Hello die
Stencil: ARTplorations Leaf Prints

I'm entering the following challenges:-

    I love how your stenciled alcohol ink lift technique for your background turned out, Jenny. Your background has so much beautiful texture and goes so well with your pretty stamped on alcohol ink background bird and fussy cut. A real beauty. TFS and joining us at CAS Stencil. Hugs..Nancy
