Cheap Alcohol Inks + Photo Paper = Let's Make 3 Cards!

Let's see how well photo paper stands up to lengthy experimentation. I recently tried experimenting and playing with alcohol inks on photo paper to make three backgrounds that would turn into cards. I'm "mostly" thrilled with the results! The vibrant colors and unique patterns created using alcohol inks are perfect for creating one-of-a-kind cards and other papercrafts. What do you think about the controversial turtle card?
