Alcohol ink Background & Stampscapes

This card was done on an alcohol ink background and once again I’ve used the new Stampscapes stamps my sister gave me.  I just love these stamps and am having a great time playing with them.

Pears

For this card, I started by making an ink pad using a folded up paper towel moistened with masking fluid.  I then “inked” up the pear stamp (Magenta), several times, and stamped across the bottom of a piece of glossy cardstock.  Once the masking fluid was dry, I added some alcohol inks to make the background.  The sentiment (Inkadinkadoo) was then stamped with Versamark ink and embossed with detailed gold embossing powder. Finally, I rubbed off the masking fluid and colored in the pears using alcohol inks mixed with a little blending solution.

I really like the look of this.  What do you think? 

 

Thinking of You

The flowers, by Stamps Happen, are stamped on a piece of acetate with Stazon Jet Black ink. This is a really large stamp, so I only used a portion of it. I then sewed the acetate on to an alcohol ink scrap. Kind of a kewl look, don’t you think?

Thanks for stopping by!

Merry Christmas Tree Ornament

For November we were to create an ATC that could be hung on a tree. The stamp from Tim Holtz is stamped with black StazOn ink on to an alcohol ink background. I really love the colors of this. What do you think?

Magenta Workshop - Card 3

This technique is really kewl. We applied alcohol inks to an acrylic tile. The poinsettia is stamped with black Memories on to the tile once the alcohol inks are dry. (You are stamping on to the side that has the alcohol ink). As soon as you have stamped, and while the ink is still wet, you blot off the excess ink with a paper towel. Then gently rub off the rest of the ink with the paper towel. By removing the ink, you are left with a white image. Neat eh?

This is another workshop card. Alcohol inks are applied to a border sticker. The focal image is stamped over an alcohol ink background.
