WATCH FOR IT WEDNESDAY #53

Welcome to Watch for It Wednesday!!! I saw this fun technique with Alcohol Inks and thought I would share it with you. You will need some alcohol inks, a small spray bottle, white flowers, and blending solution. Put some water in your mini mister. Add your favorite color of alcohol ink to make your desired color. Spray the white flower with the ink mixture.
After the flower is completely covered with the ink put the Blending solution in the middle of the flower. This will give your flower a tie-dyed look. My picture really doesn't do this technique justice. You should give it a try.
You can also use this technique on ribbon, glass, bottle caps and the pieces of your die cuts.
Happy Scrapping!!! Have fun.

I love spraying my white flowers with Glimmer Mist but have never tried doing it with alcohol inks or on ribbon. I'll have to give it a try - thanks for the tip Ann!

Great tip! I have never tried this but what a great way to dress up plain flowers.
TFS!
