Winnie & Walter - The Gossip Column: Marble

I  am back again today ... but I couldn't let the day go by without a card for the current Gossip Column Challenge #6 - Marble! at Winnie & Walter!
 
AND since today I'm playing with alcohol inks [new] and doing a never-before-technique [marbling] and it IS National Inspire your Heart with ART day!! - how is a girl to resist entering her card in Darnell's NBUS Challenge #10?



Ready for my card[s]? 

For a little better view of that gorgeous marbling: a close-up!

and if one is good, two is better, right?


Winnie & Walter have only the best words ... don't they? 

Here is another favorite of mine:  Thanks!

  8. What has gotten into you, Michele Ferguson? Alcohol ink? Marbling? Plus all the Copic coloring you've been doing. You're light years ahead of me, mf.

  14. HOW DID YOU DO THIS? I love the pretty marbling and the deep, jewel colors that you were able to get. I have marbled paper before and have not been able to get them with this beautiful color. Your cards are STUNNING!!

  23. Love your strong and vibrant colours and your red sentiment adds a lot of impact. Aren't Taheerah's challenges fun. I had a blast creating cards for Taheerah and Darnell's challenges and expect to make a few more marbled cards this month.

  24. With your talent, two is always better, Michele! I have to say the tones and depth you achieved with your first design made it seem like that heart was actually beating! (Am I up too late?!) I find it mesmerizing!! Thank you so much for playing in my NBUS Challenge #10 and joining in the optional "pick a National Day" theme! Hugs, Darnell
