Thinking of You

by CraftyDoerJun 7, 2023
This is my first time playing with alcohol inks and I loved it! I didn't have non-porous paper at hand so I primed my cardstock with transparent gloss with a paint brush. I heat embossed the floral stamp that was giving me tropical vibes! I badly wanted to spatter white paint all over it but didn't want to cover up any of my hard work. I opted for Glossy Accents! I got so excited about that option that I didn't stop to think that if I added Glossy Accents to the blue portion only, it would have looked like water... womp womp. Still, I had such fun creating this card!

Jess, this is gorgeous! I'm so glad you explained it, saving for future reference. I too have alcohol inks and never used, I also have embossing powder and have never used. I will have to try it sometime cause this is just amazing. Mine would probably turn out a big blob lol.
