I was playing around with my alcohol & inks, well I thought I was, couldn't figure why it wasn't working like it usually did. I finally took a good look at the bottle I thought was alcohol, oh no, I was using water.....DUH I like playing with this technique but it sure is messy.
I was playing around with inks & alcohol yesterday, came up with this one but it needs something, I'm at a loss, any suggestions would be really appreciated.
I finally got to make a card yesterday after not making any since Friday, I was going through withdrawal. This is for a Split Negative swap so I decided to use my little zebra from Artful Inkables. I really like their stamps, great selection, they are deeply etched, well trimmed, great prices, come on cling foam & I LOVE the packaging. I just hang them on my wall as the see through containers have pics of each stamp & I can see what I have easily. Here is the link if you'd like to take a look Artful Inkables
I used the polished stone technique on both of these then with bleach & a brush "painted" the the butterfly, flowers & birdcage. I've done polished stone technique before but never thought to use bleach to highlight the impressions, I saw this on Stamp TV.
This time I used baby wipes & dabbed the color from inkers, then made an ink pak with the inkers to stamp the butterfly, outlined with glossy accents, finished with a little glitter
