Here's the mood board for the challenge:
To make my card, I squirted a few drops of three colours of alcohol inks (Wild Plum, Sunbright Yellow, Tangerine) onto a piece of Photo Paper. I added blending solution to get the inks to flow. I then used an Air Blower (or Puffer as I call it) to move the inks around. Once dry, I stamped the main image and sentiment (Gratitude - Penny Black) with black ink and heat embossed in clear.

This is so gorgeous, great card!
Beautiful Loll, the colours are so vibrant- Love the card ♥
Such gorgeous vibrant colours, Loll! And I always love seeing that beautiful artsy butterfly!
Oh Loll, this is just stunning. I love everything about it. I have discovered that glossy photo paper is good for a lot of things and it takes foiling really well xx
Beautiful Alcohol ink background with "Your" favorite color combo, Lolly:-) TFS your description of your technique. Love your choice of stamped large butterfly too. You have me inspired as always, my dear friend. Love and Hugs...Nancy
A GORGEOUS background of alcohol ink, my friend! Love the butterfly stamp that goes perfectly with these awesome colors!
Absolutely BEAUTIFUL Loll and in all my favorite colors too!! I haven't had my AI inks out in awhile and should probably get them out and show them some love! That butterfly image is SO pretty and is just perfect for that GORGEOUS background...LOVE it!! Hugs. :0)
Love your silhouetted butterfly on that gorgeous sunset-like background!
Wow! Fantastic color! I love how the ink spread with your puffer. That's an amazing stamp. I'm so glad you shared this beauty with us at Double D!
Bold and beautiful, this card is amazing, Loll!

That's one of my favourite butterfly stamps and it looks fab against the bold inky background. :)
Great alco ink background Loll... I used the puffer on some watercolours - messy but fun!
Lovely card my friend. xx
Gorgeous background, love it! And that butterfly image is fantastic! This is beautiful! Thanks so much for playing along with us at The Double D, Things That Fly Challenge. Donna, DT Member.
Absolutely gorgeous Loll!
What a perfect background for your butterfly image. I think your background could be fantastic on a Halloween card too!
Right now I am addicted to Art Impression stamps and water painting them with Tombow markers. The results make me feel as if I am really talented!!
My next journey will be to use alcohol inks -- Love your card Loll!!

Quite the show stopper. Love the colors and the black image in stark contrast.
Those colors are gorgeous together, Loll, and what a stunning way to show off that fabulous butterfly.
That color mix of alcohol ink is so vibrant and bright. A beautiful butterfly stamp and clear embossing it makes it really stand out. A stunning card, Loll.
O-M-G! This is GORGEOUS! I love that image too ... and your background really pops! GREAT JOB!! Thanks so much for joining in the fun at our Double D challenge! Good Luck and we hope you’ll come back often.

What an artsy and stunning card, Loll! I love the vibrant Alcohol Ink background! The black butterfly silhouette looks dramatic against the sun set-like background. I'm the luckiest one who can enjoy the beautiful shine of the colors on the photo paper in my hand. :-) I'll treasure the card, my friend!

When I looked at this card, bright flames seemed to spring from underneath. This yellow color looks really amazing among the other colors. The butterfly silhouette is made for this background.
