Alcohol Inks on Transparencies or Vellum
Materials:
Instructions:
Lay a sheet of transparency or vellum on your craft sheet (or a protected surface). Have a 2nd sheet handy because alcohol inks dry quickly. I use 2 or 3 colors plus some metallic mixative or a posh accent metallic pen. Drop a few drops of the first color randomly on the transparency.

Drop a few drops of the 2nd or 3rd color.
Drop a few drops of the metallic mixatives & a few drops of alcohol ink blending solution on sheet. If you are using a posh metallic pen just dab some spots on the sheet. I've used the pearl metallic mixative here. I've also done them with copper metallic mixatives & gold posh accent pen. I've been happy with all of them.
Quickly place the 2nd transparency or vellum sheet on top.
'Smoosh' the colors around with your fingers - try to just have them touch not mix or they may become a 'mud' color.
Lift the top sheet off & lay both to dry. They will be dry very quickly and you can cut them up & use them in projects!
There's lots of ways to use these:
- Stamp on them & overlay.
- Overlay
- Matte
