Mixed Media Art & Prints Album
Flower overlays
these are 2 Cricut cuts I made using CTMH Artbooking - they were supposed to be for the front of a card, BUT I had measured the width and not the height so had to cut another smaller. However, I took the opportunity to play some more with my alcohol & reinkers to get some great pieces to use on future projects. Basically I used my non-stick work mat and make 4 small puddles of alcohol. I then added several drops of 2-3 reinkers (10 or so) - one color per puddle. I then slightly curved the cut piece and dipped various parts in the different puddles until I was happy with the effect OR no more white was showing (as it won't absorb more color if the pp is saturated). On the softer colored one I left some white showing as I had intended to place it on a dark background front of a card base... well- it was too tall. Anyway- off to try this using acetate....

Very cool, they look like pretty easter egg designs!
