Happy Wednesday, my friends. It's another day of
creative chemistry, an on-line class from
Tim Holtz. And I definitely had to get creative with a couple of the techniques today. Today we did alcohol ink agates, archival resist, and reflections stamping.
On the first technique, I used way too much ink and ended up with a muddy mess the first time. Second and third were better, but I ended up with four tries before I was satisfied.
For the second technique, I have a total of two colors of archival ink - jet black and sepia - not a good selection for this technique, but I decided to give it a go anyway, and I actually like how it turned out, even though it's quite a different look than what Tim had.
For the third technique, I didn't have a stamp with backwards words, so I made a substitution with a background stamp.
Thanks so much for stopping by. I hope you're having a great week.
Lovely and cheerful tags, Melody! I like your take on the original ones.
ReplyDeleteGreat tags Mel. I have to go to my studio and do yesterday's and today's after I finish on here.
ReplyDeleteMelody,

Melody - I'm a fellow student 'chemist' - and I must say I totally love your tags. I'm off to the craft shop today to buy supplies so I can catch up on homework over the next couple of nights.
ReplyDeleteWow Melody, these tags are beautiful! I cannot decode which one I like best
