and
I was starting out to make a water color for a water color challenge but alcohol ink worked better.
The background is a piece of alcohol inked glossy card stock that I trimmed down with Paper Smooches “Quotables” die.
Next I used Tim HOltz “Swirling Stars” set and cut out the stars.
On a white card stock base card I attached the alcohol inked piece then stamped the sentiments from Paper Smooches “Space Cadet” with Gina K. designs amalgam black ink.
On another piece of white card stock I stamped the alien from the same Paper Smooches set with the same ink and colored it with Wink of Stella(clear gloss, glossy blue, glossy silver), purple gel pen and a gold glitter gel pen.
To finish I die cut the alien with the coordinating die and foam taped it to the card front.
I love what you did with the alcohol inked background - the way you fit it in the corner and how you cut out the stars - so creative! Thanks for sharing with us at the Alphabet Challenge!

What a wonderful card Arlene - an incredible idea to die cut the stars, and your wee alien is such a cutie and so wonderfully coloured.
