Basic Backgrounds 08/06/13

This week we will be using the brayer with alcohol inks.
Here is what you will need.
Glossy card stock, 2-3 Alcohol inks, Metallic Mixative, Bleding Solution and a brayer.
Drop a few drops of each color of ink, the Metallic Mixative and the Blending Solution onto your craft mat.
Pick the color up with your brayer.
You don't want to roll back and forth. You just want to roll over the ink and pick some up.
Brayer the color onto your card stock. Go back and pick up more color if you like. Don't worry about white spaces. You don't want a total coverage. You get a marble type look.
Next week I'm going to try a technique I just heard about and couldn't resist buying the supplies. I'll be using a Gelli plate. I can't wait to try this out.
