More Alcohol Inks Backgrounds

Hi everyone, Adriana here today and I am  
sharing a quick video using some of the fabulous
Couture Creations  Alcohol Ink 
Creating a background first and then adding
some stamping and painting effects.

Here are my cards




This background has a Alcohol ink speckle effect 
using the Couture Creations Alcohol ink Felt Applicator 
CO727343





This background effect was created with the
Couture Creations Air Blower CO727859
for a more flowing effect.




And for my last card
the background was created with doing a transfer technique
onto card stock.





I have a video of the whole process on how I created these
backgrounds - to see the full tutorial please click HERE:
