Stay Crafty With Hero Challenge #12 - Friendship

Here is Stay Crafty With Hero Challenge - Friendship, below is the challenge photo:

And here are the cards I made to attend this challenge:

I used alcohol inks, alcohol lift-ink pad, and Yupo paper to play the alcohol lift ink technique. I dropped blue and red alcohol inks o the Yupo paper. Then I applied alcohol lift-ink pad on Hero Arts' Three Ferns stamp and stamped on the glossy cardstock to make the above card. The greeting is from Hero Arts' Stamped Just For You set. The original Yupo inked background was made into the below card:

I used the Hero Arts' rectangle dies to make white border and cut the hello die (from Avery Elle). I inlay the white rectangle die into the background and attached the hello die at the bottom of the background to finish the card.

Supplies:

Cardstock: MFT, Yupo Paper

Ink Pads: alcohol lift-ink pad, Stampin' Up

Stamps: Hero Arts

Dies: Hero Arts, Avery Elle

Others: alcohol inks
