The theme for this month is "Silhouettes" and I made this card. I love working with bold backgrounds and striking silhouettes. This one combines regular and pearl alcohol inks on Yupo for a vibrant shimmering effect.

This is how it came together;

I made this alcohol ink background on Yupo using a mix of regular and pearl inks. 

I die cut a couple of gentleman in black card and chose 1 to use.  This die set is in my Tim Holtz stash but Susan has a huge selection of his dies including the new Halloween Classics here. I also used a sticker from his metallic sticker book

I die cut some stacked hearts in yellow card and added my sticker to the larger one. 

I then die cut a couple of mischievous cats and put my design together. My finishing touch was some die cut hearts in white glitter card. 

here is one more close up

and a final photo of my card.
