A Couple Quick Cards

I needed some quick Thank You cards, so went to my stash of pictures to upcycle and my stash of prepared background papers and created these two cards.

Card #1 (above): Here, a background created with a marbling technique (alcohol ink dripped into a container of water - then "kiss" the white card stock to the water to pick up color).  I believe this one may also have a bit of spray ink added to it.  At any rate, the colors were perfect for this focal that was cut from a calendar page.  The "Thank You" was cut from a freebie Debbi Moore download.

Card #2:

This time the background was a piece of black card stock covered with Golden Glow Opal Polish. The focal was recycled from a greeting card I received, and the greeting was hand written on coordinating paper & then matted with more of the Opal Polish covered card stock.

Since everything was already in my stash, these were very quick cards indeed.
