This background here was created using Alcohol Inks on YUPO paper. Bekah then took a leaf stamp, inked it up with Archival Ink, and stamped on TOP of the Alcohol Inks. THEN, using a paper towel, she wiped away the Archival Ink and what is left behind is this BEAUTIFUL appearance!!
*For whatever reason, Ranger Archival Ink is the only kind of ink that works with this technique.. and I just LOVE how it looks!!
Check out some of these other STUNNING papers she created!!
This one was using a stencil.. the Batik Effect here is so beautiful!!
To see these samples in person, stop by the store!! We love to help you think outside the box.. and these Faux Batik Backgrounds make it easy to use some of those stencils or stamps you may have lying around!
