More Alcohol Fun! :)

Ok, it's alcohol inks...not actual alcohol :) Soooo much fun to play with, I decided to do another version of an inked tin today. Sorry for the lack of posting this week, I've had several technical difficulties! Anyway, I wanted to show another version of a tin with alcohol inks, silver & blending solution.
This time I used a white tin which gives a totally different look right from the start. A white background makes the colors of the inks even more brilliant and adds some "white space" to any parts you don't cover with the inks.
First, using the ink tool & felt, I added 5 colors of alcohol inks in 2 tiny dots per color to the felt. Dab all over tin, leaving a little white space. Then, add 2-3 dots of the silver mixitive to the felt and dab all over tin again. Lastly, squirt some blending solution onto your felt pad and go over tin again until the inks are blended to your liking.
If you have all of your inks ready to go, this whole tin takes less than 5 minutes! The alcohol inks dry pretty much instantly, so it's a very quick way to make a beautiful impact!


Of course you can get all the great alcohol ink products to complete these tins right at Pez-A-Doodle by clicking on the banner to the right! She's got tons of great new Tim Holtz stuff including new alcohol ink colors (LOTS of them!), new alcohol ink pens & fun accents!
Have a great weekend everyone!

Hugs- Kelly
