What fun even though my prints don't look at all like Birgit's! I need to practice more with mixing or maybe limiting my colours and the right amount of white paint but there's nothing here I won't be able to use. If you click on any photo it will enlarge.
I probably need to try better quality paper since I used some large paper placemats for some of this printing and they wrinkled.
Even these "failures" which I did before ink had dried properly are pretty - like old walls of peeling paint
and I cleaned up with a cosmetic sponge and Ranger alcohol blending solution which will help lift the inks
There's nothing here I don't like - and I'm very happy with areas that I'll be able to tear and use as collage elements in future projects. I decided to crop a few photos for examples just for fun....
Wow what wonderful variety
ReplyDeleteThanks ♥
DeleteSuper Lynette! This technique is irresistible and addictive! Great idea to print on doilies - must try that! I've found that if you pull with gold or copper paint, it produces really nice results! You can't beat a 50% off voucher - I've got the gold and silver Pinata inks but haven't tried any of their regular colours. Happy playing!
ReplyDeleteAdds idea about pulling with gold paint to list to try next time ;-) Thank you xo
DeletePS: they make great collage papers!
ReplyDeleteI am using inky collage papers more and more. So excited about using these :-)
DeleteThey turned out beautifully. And what a great assortment of inks in your purchase.
ReplyDeleteVery lucky with that voucher!
