It's a Bugs Life


The theme of the challenge this week at Crafty Cardmakers is "It's a Bugs Life". 

 I have been playing with my alcohol Inks and decided it was nice background paper for my dragonfly die. I had heard about using Kilz (a primer/sealer) on mixed media paper to seal the paper to be able to use alcohol on it. It appears to work very well for this application. Kilz can be purchased at a hardware or paint store.   I also used several colours of Nuvo Crystal and Glitter Drops on the wings.

Thank you for stopping by and have a creative week.   Check out the works of our talented design team here.

  4. Lovely card Judy, what a beautiful dragonfly die. I've been playing with Alcohol inks rather a lot just recently but I have never heard of Kilz, I managed to get hold of some craft plastic which is much cheaper than Yupo paper, but works just as well.
    Have a great evening, hugs Kimx
