Acrylic Ink Backgrounds



The background on this card was done with washes of acrylic inks on watercolor paper. Acrylic inks can be purchased, but seeing as I had some tube paints I made my own inks by combining 5 in. of tube acrylics with 1/2 oz. of distilled water. The ink was applied using a 2 in. brush. A cheap, dollar store brush, can be used.
Once the ink was dry, I overstamped the Penny Black stamp with Memories black dye ink and added some black Peel-Offs.
