I don’t often like how my alcohol ink backgrounds turn out. Yours are SO classy! I don’t have T!m’s huffer tool, which might make a difference in my creations. I need to play again. I also need to work on my batching and organizing. oh and this one ❤should get more than 1 thumbs up👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 but, alas, I am not allowed to say how I truly feel by youtube. I hope you are enjoying this glorious day in the mitten. 🌞

Dollar tree here I come. Poster board makes economic sense and your cards are beautiful.

Your cards are AWESOME!! I don't know why I feel intimidated with my alcohol inks. Probably because I don't feel like I have control over how they are going to end up. 🙄🤔I need to get them out and play I guess and see if I can come anywhere close to getting such beautiful backgrounds as you did.

I ordered some of the micro dot adhesive sheets after seeing your review video and I like them. Your alcohol ink cards are very pretty and I like how you die cut them before adding the ink. I usually die cut after I've used the inks and lose all my white space.

Great video! Do you use a Kamar or any fixative spray on your cards?

Not for cards no. When I was selling alcohol art pieces for walled art then I would do a UV spray and a fixative but for just cards, no. Thanks so much for watching!!

Is the posterboard matt finish or glossy? Thanks for a fun video!

@amyswares

10 ай бұрын

It is glossy for sure, that's why it works and flows around on the surface.

Love this video! I am not clear on the die cut. Is this a tool for cutting the paper and is there a video on this? Thanks.

@amyswares

7 ай бұрын

You know I don't have a vid about it but this is good inspiration to make one. These are thin metal dies that you put on top of the paper and then sandwich it between the cutting plates and run it through an embossing/die cutting machine that applies a lot of pressure and then it cuts the paper. I hope this helps.
