Tropical Bday Card

Started out trying to make a quilt card. Didn't turn out like I thought but I like the new direction that I went with the card. I made this by using the alchohol on cotton balls with a few drops of reinkers. Used sunny yellow (I think that is what it was called) and played with other colors until I came up with a pattern I liked. Dragged the cotton balls across glossy white card stock/picture paper. It is very tropical. Was kind of nice to do something like this, especially with as cold as it has been. My youngest helped witht this project.
