Positive Thoughts Stampin’ Up! Card Idea

Do you remember the fun Alcohol Ink backgrounds I was making a couple months ago?  Remember I went kinda crazy and made a ton of them?  🙂  I loved the colors in this one and decided to just go with those colors for the flowers and leaves of my stamped images!!  The flowers and leaves are from the gorgeous Positive Thoughts set and coordinating Nature’s Thoughts dies.

The Positive Thoughts stamp set images are inked with these Stampin’ UP! ink colors: Daffodil Delight, Melon Mambo, Granny Apple Green and Shaded Spruce. 

I used Granny Apple Green, Daffodil Delight and Bermuda Bay Stampin’ Blends markers to color randomly onto a piece of Vellum Cardstock.  Spritz with Rubbing Alcohol and then dab with a Water Painter and more alcohol.  Last step, spritz with Wink of Stella.

After it was dry I attached it to Thick Basic White cardstock with and Adhesive Sheet, then die cut it with the Nature’s Thoughts Die.  (you could also just cut a rectangle).
