Hope you're inspired!
Supplies:
-Rubbing Alcohol
-One or Two Classic Re-Inkers
-Metallic Re-Inker
-Cotton Balls
-Glossy Cardstock
-Acrylic Sealer

Step One:
Add a few drops of metallic re-inker randomly on your glossy cardstock.

Step Two:
Soak your cotton ball with rubbing alcohol.

Step Three:
Add about two drops of each classic re-inker color onto your soaked cotton ball.

Step Four:
Dab the cotton ball over your cardstock.

Step Five:
Continue dabbing until you achieve the look you want. The rubbing alcohol will cause the re-inker to blend together. The metallic re-inker will sit on top of the color and will make your background look like marble.

Step Six:
Allow your cardstock to dry, then seal it with an acrylic sealer. Stamp your image with either Basic Black, Basic Brown or Stazon Ink.

Step Seven:
Finish your card as desired.
