CAS Christmas Challenge - April

I went to a local art show today and was surprised to see the number of artists who had used alcohol ink as their medium.  I don't pretend to be able to do with it what they did but it sure is fun to play around with.  Like for my card for CAS Christmas Challenge.
I cut the SSS mod ornament from gold and then inlaid the alcohol pieces.  The same gold makes a border and the die cut word from CPD. 

Thanks for dropping by.  I hope you had a great weekend.
