I used a piece of bubble wrap, squirted on two colours of alcohol inks (magenta and red) and then pressed a piece of Yupo paper on top. I got lots of prints that I'll hang on to for future use. This was my favourite from the bunch.
I added a simple die-cut sentiment, cut from black card stock and black foam. Glued them together to create more dimension, and then coated it in glossy accents. The shine from the sentiment matches the shine from the alcohol inks.
I hope you'll come play along at Darnell's NBUS #10 challenge. It's the last of the three challenges that she has run to celebrate her 5 years of blogging. The challenge is open until Feb. 5th.

Gorgeous bubble wrap background for your Love sentiment. Would make a unique Valentine card. I made several bubble wrap backgrounds today also and did finish one card tonight. Probably will not get to post until tomorrow. What a FUN technique. Happy stamping my friend. Hugs...

I look with admiration on the pattern obtained with bubble wrap. I love the delicate web of some bubbles! They look stunning. I love these unintended effects, there are always amazing. Juicy colors suggest that love is in the air :-))
