DIstress Oxide Thank You cards

I finally got some time and played with my new Distress Oxide inks. I was using one of  Jennifer McGuire's tutorials and here are the results:

For the first one I used abandoned coral and candied apple

and for the blue one  - peacock feathers, mermaid lagoon  and twisted citron - the shiny part is done with Spica glitter markers
this was fun and I might need to add to my distress oxide collection - just a word of advice - use a thicker weight of paper - I used SU Whisper White and while it blended nicely, the paper became somewhat warped after all the inking, embossing and splattering.

Challenges:
Challenge Up Your Life - Thank You
Allsorts - Thanks a bunch (flowers and Thank You)
My Time To Craft - Something New (new inks and new technique)
Sweet Stampin' - New (new inks and new technique)

I love your cards - I forgot to add the oxide inks to my wish list so they'll have to be my new year's treat. I may just have to come back and view your lovely cards - thanks for joining us at Sweet Stampin this week and Happy New Year to you and yours

These are really effective, I shall have to try this technique. I have some distress oxides but haven't used them that much. I must change that x
