Welcome back
In my last post I showed how to color using alcohol markers and Blending Solution.
In this post lets look at using alcohol inks to color your images.
Just like my prior post I will be using the new kit Watercolor Florals Card Making Kit
from over at The Artsystamper Shop.
This kit is brand new and I already have made dozens of cards.
I think you will really love this kit.
Again, today I am specifically using the Outline Elements sheet from the kit
But this time I printed that sheet onto glossy CS.
(Prints great with either ink jet or laser printers.)
I used Alcohol Inks, Blending solution, Felt and an applicator
I chose 2 different colors, added some to the felt
I added some Blending solution to the felt over the alcohol ink
I tapped the applicator over the images
Next I colored the other images.
Next I mounted some of the images onto a layer piece right down the center.
The layer piece is 8" X 5 1/4"
After adhering the images I cut the layer piece (Dotted DP) right down the center
right thru the flowers.
This will give you 2 layered card fronts
See how those card fronts fit together
See how the flowers and the leaves were positioned before the cut was made.
Here are the cards separate
Card #1
