Creative Chemistry Finale

Hi everyone! I made one last card for the Creative Chemistry Class I've been taking. This has been a fabulous class with Tim Holtz teaching us so many great tips and techniques. You can still register for the class here.

Isn't this a great sunflower stamp from Frog's Whisker's Ink?  I used Alcohol Inks with Pearl Mixatives on the sunflower petals and the blue background and Alcohol Inks with Copper Mixative for the flower center. The card base and sentiment were inked with Distress Inks and sprayed with Perfect Pearls. Love all the soft pearlescent shimmer on this card!  I used Hero Arts Envelope Pattern on the card base (hard to see) and the sentiment is from the new Zig Zag Thanks stamp set also from Hero Arts.

I really enjoyed your class Tim, so sad to see it's over but I hope you'll do another one real soon!

Thanks for stopping by!

    That's what I call a grand finale! Absolutely beautiful. I'm not sure why I didn't sign up for this class at the beginning, but I did yesterday and can already see I have a LOT to learn from Tim. Thanks for sharing the inspiration!
