Communicating from a Great Distance. Don't we all feel like this now?
The background for this card was made using Distress Oxide inks. I put the ink onto a small acrylic block and smooched it around till I was happy with the colours.
I then stamped the images using Versa Fine Clair - Nocturne. But it was really hard to get a good clean image - I think there must be something in the Oxide Inks that doesn't mix with this ink pad. Even using Misti didn't help much. I will go back to using Brilliance Graphite Black ink. The wolves were "grounded" by using some torn paper and sponging.
The foliage was stamped with Versa Fine Clair inks.
I stood back and hurled liquid pearls and glitter glue at the card - to finish it off and give it some added sparkle.
Stay safe everyone.
Hope you enjoy.

My jaw just hit the floor! Helen your card is mesmerising....I hope you frame this or put it in a journal to remember how amazing you are! I am in awe at the way you grounded the wolves so perfectly. Liquid pearls - need I say more. I am totally in love with this incredible card my Aussie mate.

You must certainly didn't hurl the Liquid Pearls, they look as though they had been applied with great precision and to great effect. Yes, I have had similar problems with stamping in black on DOX backgrounds on regular card. Thanks for mentioning that Brilliance works.
