Cool alcohol ink technique (link fixed)

So weird. The URL didn't work but if you cut and paste into your brower, it will work.

I know most of us have alcohol ink stashed away...

That looks really cool. But for as little of the foil as actually winds up showing through, I wonder if it would work just as well with regular cardstock. Though I guess foil tends to emboss pretty well...

Looks like a fun technique though. I often tend to forget that you can do things with AI other than just load them on your felt pouncing tool thingy and pounce them around on stuff making blotches. :lol:

I wondered that too, Julie, but then you wouldn't get the metal showing through after you sand it. I liked it after she did the black ink on the raised areas. If you left it at that point then it might not need to be metal but it would have to be glossy or gesso'ed to get the alcohol inks to move around. Otherwise, they soak right into paper. So many things to try.....

Thanks, Pam
