Hi everyone! Last Thursday my mother in law and I went to a workshop.
The hobbystore Craft & Things in Antwerp gives great cardmaking workshops and we love to go there. It’s pretty far driving for us but always so much fun!

In this workshop we would work with alcohol inks. I was already interested in alcohol inks for a while now because you can have fabulous backgrounds with it. But I was in doubt to buy the inks because I wasn’t sure if I would like working with it. And also because you need a few supplies to get started as well.

But… I loved it! So I bought a few supplies to get started. I got a blue-ish and green color like we used for the seaweed on the card. With summer coming closer I will be making sea themed cards and those sea colors will come in handy!

The card we made on Thursday was seathemed as well. Look at the cute seahorse and the beautiful seaweed!

We also used gilding flakes on the alcohol ink background. Those are the silver and bronze parts you can see on the seaweed. I loved it that I could try out these new products.

If you would like to follow a cardmaking workshop, Crafts & Things is the place to be!

I enjoyed making this card and I hope you like it too! See you soon!
