4 Crafty Chicks #420 Alcohol Ink Twist

Happy Thursday!

Hope you're having a beautiful day!

Presently, here in central North Carolina we are bracing for Hurricane Florence to dump her wrath our way.  Thankfully we don't get flooding at our house, so as long as our trees stay up and off the house we are riding it out at home with our four pets. I also plan to craft as long as the power stays on.  What an excuse to play, huh?  I'm just praying all those in worse harm's way will be safe and Florence doesn't stall out and add insult to injury as feared.


Along with that, it's also time for a new challenge at 
4 Crafty Chicks
and 
I am your hostess this week!



If you haven't played with alcohol inks, you should give them a try.  It's really cool to watch the patterns and colors emerge. 

I had some alcohol inked background made from these light blues and plastic wrap.  I decided to use it for a birthday card for my Hubs who celebrated his birthday last weekend.  He is a Detroit Lions fan and this background was the perfect "Detroit" color along with the silver.  He loved it!

So make sure you stop by the Hen House and check out the rest of the Chicks' projects, all so gorgeous!  Then come play along with us.  You can join in the twist challenge for a chance to be our weekly winner or you can play in our always Anything Goes challenge and share whatever you desire.  The choice is yours!

If you're in the path of Florence, I hope you and your family stay safe!

Delightful card with a fun sentiment. Praying your trees stay upright and the power stays on for crafting time. The photos of your fur babies on the sidebar are darling! Rorschach looks like a playful kitty. We have two tuxedo cats who are quite the entertainers. Hugs from Oklahoma!
