Playing with Alcohol Inks

I have not had these inks long and was keen to have a play with them. I used a shiny card, and after applying the ink, I ran it through the c/b, rounded the corners, and attached to a d/l card. The little tag says Thank you, and can be taken out of the vellum pocket. Finished off with some punched flowers and added some 'bling' to their centres.
I am entering the following challenges.
Crafty Cardmakers - alcohol inks
Simon Says Stamp Challenge   - Move it (the tag comes out)
Secret Crafter  a>  - Anything goes
A Spoonful Of Sugar   - Anything goes

On a musical note....

I love this musical digi and it is perfect for this challenge.
I printed it on to some kraft card and lightly watercoloured parts of it. The image was then layered on to a cream card which I ran through my cuttlebug and highlighted it with a Vanilla ink pad. Then tied some crochet cotton around and layered again onto a cream base card.
I am entering it in the following challenges

Simon Says Stamp and Show   ---Layers
The Stampman Challenges    ---Musical
Your Next Stamp    ---Anything Goes

My new stamp

For this card I have used a stamp that I won as part of a prize from  The Stampman. I have mounted it on some lovely old lace from my stash, and decorated it with Prima flowers and pearls.
