Spin Art Cards

Surprise! More spin art from me.....LOL
I decided to leave off the sentiments (except for the one thank you card) so I can just add something when I need it. More versatile that way.
TFL!

Wow! You are having some serious fun with that machine!

Diane, gorgeous as usual. I really like the lower yellow card with the dark inks...AI I presume. What's interesting about that one is it looks like there is a face in the center.

Very good Farley! There is a face.....I used the stamp from Celestial and embossed it with clear EP. The EP took up the color of the alcohol inks, something I should have known would happen.....LOL
Thanks!

Oh you have just too much time to play Miss Diane! These are fabulous.
I almost got my machine out to play last night... but remembered I really should be making Christmas cards... (6 down, 50 to go...)

These are beautiful and as you say, very versatile!

Wow - did you stack up on batteries? Looks like your spin-art is getting a work-out!

Love the designs and love the face.

Awesome Diane! What I want to know is, how in the world did you get such and even splatter all the way around???? Every time I try, I wind up with like quadrants of blobs. Not completely unusable, but I'd love to know how to get an even circle of splatter, if there is in fact a technique there.

That one with the face is my favorite. It looks like it belongs to Luanne. Those are all very nice.

Julie - here's what I do when working on paper:
Spray with water or glimmer mist
While paper is still wet, add the alcohol ink - be generous! I also like dropping the alcohol ink in the exact center of the paper.
At this point I usually stop the spin and look at the design. If I like it, I spin again and add another alcohol ink color.
Stop and again and look at the pattern. Sometimes I stop here if I like what I see.
If the alcohol ink is too blobby I try adding the blending solution. Usually that will help the ink to spread.
If I want to add another layer of something, at this point I'll spray again with water or glimmer mist then spritz on memory mist. I absolutely love the white memory mist!
When working on transparencies I usually don't use any water base stuff until the very end.
Now, go spin!

Monica, I don't think you have anything to worry about. No one can seem to find a spinner right now!
