I spent a happy afternoon yesterday matching up cardstock and here's a few of the results:
I'm not sure I'm ready to give away the one below on the left here yet as I like it so much. The background paper is Studio 45. I stamped the central image on a spare piece and cut out some of the flowers, stuck them on the central piece and finished with a rub on.
The stamps are a mix of Lazar Studiowerx, Cornish Heritage (both sadly gone), Stempelglede and Third Coast. I've got another half dozen in various states of completion so will post as I finish.

Lovely to see Alcohol inky back to her AIs. Great cards - especially love the floral one. Gorgeous!
What a great idea - digging through your old stash to make cards! And these are great, I love the alcohol ink backgrounds :)

It definitely pays to play Carol - they are all great and I particularly like the second pair. Looking forward to seeing the others.
Funny that, I was playing with mine yesterday but in a totally different way.
Don't they look fab when they get some stamping on them, totally changes the look - stunning

It is good to see you use AI inks as that is what I associate you with from when I first joined KCUK.
You made these amazing cards from those backgrounds - WOW.
Gorgeous, each and every one.
