I have a couple of cards to share with you today, they both feature the amazing Mesmerizing Mandala Die-namics. There are so many fun things that you can do with this die. For my two cards today, I paired the mandala die with a few of my favorite Ranger Alcohol Inks. I created the backgrounds using a few colours of Alcohol ink and Blending Solution on Glossy card stock.
I die-cut the mandala in Brushed Silver card stock. I love this card stock as it is not super shiny, it is more subtle than some of our other silver card stock. The sentiments were die-cut in Black Licorice and Brushed Silver card stock. I slightly offset the black card stock on top of the silver. I love the subtle shadow effect this creates.
Thanks so much for joining me today. Be sure to check out the MFT Blog to see all the gorgeous creations the design team has to share with you!

ReplyDeleteThe richness of the alcohol ink backgrounds really set off the brushed silver medallions. The Mesmerizing Mandala die is going to be a must for me in this release and your examples made it even more imperative! Thanks for sharing such wonderful examples.
