Enjoy this DIY Alcohol Inks at Home Tutorial :) - Jak na to + styl
I just bought a whole pile of photo paper at a garage sale. My boyfriend was like “what are you possibly going to do with that paper for your journals”? I told him, just you watch, someone will come up with a really cool idea and I’ll be ready. lol That’s exactly what happened. Love these so much. Thanks darling.
Perfect🤗
I found a massive bag of photo paper at the thrift store for a couple of dollars. I've used them for alcohol inks before.
Yeah, I was "gifted" some by an aunt who likes to purge..
@@daniellehaggard7401yeah I'm that Aunt!!! Lol I'm The kind of mom/aunt/friend that purges😂😂. I'm very scared of being diagnosed with cancer and I'm putting off going to Dr to see until my daughter takes her boards this month. After That I will go to find out. But if i do I'm gonna have a craft and art and diy collection that takes up two entire rooms plus storage of supplies, not to mention wood (I'm also a diyer and love making decor or building things) that will have no where to go since my kids aren't into craft or art hobbies. I wanna find some people that are less fortunate but talented that my stuff (so many things brand new in box) can benefit and possibly make their life or their craft/possibly dream career possible! Idk where to even start to ask around if that happens. I don't want the task to have to be in my daughter's shoulders as losing me is her worst fear. I'm only 40 Andi have a plethora of health problems as is. Hence why allot of things are new. I have planners and planner supplies from 7-8 years ago and card stock, all kinds of paint and makers and pens and other mediums. Every glue you could imagine. From prayer crafting to construction grade for diys with wood and stuff. I have boxes of curs of wood in my storage room and shelves of glass vases and containers and decor. Journaling cards and papers and decoupage and clay and jewelry making, ribbon and faux greenery n florals and twine and fabric and tools/power tools, embellishments, ephemera, graphite pencils, oil pastels, watercolor, beads, yarn, spray paint, stamps, inks, mica, vinyl, iron on vinyl, washi tape, tape, notebooks, journals and planners, macrame, clay, moulds, metal wood and plastic blanks for Cricut diy decor. My Cricut which had only been used 4-5 times ever in the 3 years I've had it now. Etc etc etc. If anyone knows a good donation center that would come in and go thru and take away Thad stuff to donate after I'm gone (let's cross fingers I'm wrong. We just lost my mom to cancer not even three years ago and she was only 59. ) But please let me know your suggestions! ?? 🙏🏻🙏🏻
@@jennifer6922 fenbendazole is an OTC antiparasitic that has been shown to effect cancer cells in lab mice. Take a look at the research. Also waiting won't improve your survival chances. Also, if it's a problem. Just box up what you aren't using in the next year and look into charities that can come and get it should you become to weak or painful to deal with it. I'm not sure what area you are in, so I cannot suggest specifics. Just mark them with what is in them.
If you want to “fix” those drip prints, you can use a small spray bottle to spray alcohol directly onto the finished prints. This will create a very interesting effect when the inks are reactivated and “bloom” where the tiny drops of alcohol hit.
Oohhh awesome!
Great idea! Thanks for the tip.
Thank you
Awesome idea!
Love playing with alcohol inks!!!
I’ve been wondering if it was possible to make homemade alcohol ink and found this soooo helpful Natasha.
You are like a craft scientist for us. 🖌📚🖇🔖💝
I’m so glad! Thank you 😊
“Craft scientist.” I love that! ❤
I use a blower tool by tim holtz because you definitely don’t want to breath in threw the straw, only out.
The reason to use watercolour paper or photo paper is for the movement, so after you drop your drops onto the paper you then can drop alcohol on top for movement or more alcohol inks too.
Your plain paper looked lovely but you can’t get the movement that way because it absorbs the colour.
You can alcohol ink metal, glass vases, etc....nothing that you drink/eat off or out of. Lastly when you kept dropping the colours onto your smooshing mat, each colour kept reactivating the colours underneath it therefore making a whole different colour.
Also with already made alcohol inks you need to seal it so the colour doesn’t fade but I’m sure making your own this way that may not happen because they’re markers...not sure.
And the last thing off the top of my head is....you totally can use plain paper if you seal it with gesso or something like that, another thing you may want to try.
Looks like you had a blast figuring lots out and they sure all look lovely! Thanks for your wonderful videos as always. Hugs from Ontario. Hope some of my ideas/advise are things that help you. None at all were meant to be rude, just to help you out. I’m sure you knew all of them just forgot to mention because it’s hard to remember to mention everything in your time. ;) all the best.
I have a can of spray varnish in my garage. You just made me think I could spray some card stock.
A baby’s nasal aspirator (new) is also a great way to “blow” ink.
Can't you even add clear glue and make a faux stained glass?
@@flowerchild777 that sounds interesting! We should try that! I love experimenting
@@poodlegirl55 that’s a brilliant idea!
Fun video! On the acetate sheet that was still sticky, try putting some of those transfer foils over the sticky parts and then peel away after rubbing them on. I've gotten some beautiful results that way. It looks like veins of metallic colors running through the colors.
Great idea!
What about doing the clear pocket trick and laminating them so the ink is between the acetate and the lamination pouch? Shouldn't squirt out the ends but you could use parchment paper to be sure. Or try a small section.
Thanks for all the ideas! I have done this in the past, but not for a while. I will pull them out again! I bought a set of new markers to do this so I would have the whole rainbow of colors and put them in dropper bottles. If they dry out, you just add more alcohol. Got tons of photo paper at the thrift store as well. Blowing with a straw creates some nice patterns. You are a great teacher and it's nice that you take us along with your experiments, even if they do not turn out the way you think!
You ALWAYS have the most wonderful Ideas! I do this using old printer cartridges and they work great too. Also I use just regular Dollar tree rubbing alcohol. Then put the 'printer insides' into a jars and leave them forever too. THANK YOU FOR SHARING--You are the BEST!!!
What a great idea using the old printer inks, thanx for sharing 😍
I wasn't liking the technique at first, but I was watching because I enjoy watching you. Then you showed the diecuts, now that caught my attention right away, I loved the flowers!
I don't know if you read these, but I would like to tell that I look forward every week to your videos, I like your humor and slightly flippant attitude about things, and you come up with lots of interesting ideas. Thank you for being here!
Using alcohol ink on a tracing paper or velum by putting ink into spray bottle. The crunch is fantastic and the paper looks like a stain glass. Very good idea Natasha. I will have to try the squishing method.
Ooo, that sounds like a great idea!
Way to go. I always love making something out of nothing. It's what has attracted me to the junk Journal creating. And I never thought about recycling the cases. But I'm going to look into that too. Great job thank you
There are various stores here in Australia that recycle them. Officeworks is the most well know I believe
*LOVE* LOL...did you hear me squeal?? There is never a shortage of dried up markers among my stash...I can't wait to put them to use and give this a try. Thank you for sharing! You rock, chickie!!🥰 *HUGS*
Yaaay!! Thank you so much!!!
I keep my alcohol inks in the spray bottles and spray several colours on the white backings of the paper napkins. The results are stunning.
Oh, another great idea. Thanks for sharing.
What a genius project!! I’m going to give this a go. I think these pieces would make beautiful pockets, belly bands and flip-outs in journals. As always Natasa, you raise the bar for us crafters and bring such fun and joy to all of us! Love & light!
Definitely one of those "why didn't I think of that" moments. Thank you Natasha. I've been wanting to get alchohol ink to make vintage tape but don't want to spend a lot. Use what you've got, right. So, I've been using wax paper & distress oxide to make the vintage tape.
Now, thanks to you, I'm going to try this out. Thank you so much!💕
Sounds interesting, I hope it works out for you.
BIG fun!!! I've made these but only used Sharpies--it's great to know any markers can be used. Your frustration with that color wheel is exactly why I created and teach "Get to Know Your Palette" (various ways to make friends with that color wheel) --it doesn't have to be frustrating or confusing. Made me sad to see it get to you "never mind, I'll just make blue"... but thank you for confirming it's a good idea. 🌼
I think this is a very worthwhile project. Getting omething usable from things that are considered trash, is always worthwhile.
Finally a project to use up old plastic pill bottles! That's a good way to mix the colors then store in something more permanent. TFS as always.
Oh what a fantastic idea to use the pill bottles to create the ink in then store in a more permanent container later. I'm putting that one in my idea box as I collect up my old markers.
Good idea, just PLEASE make sure the caps don't leak!! I suggest putting it or them ( bottles) in a well sealed bag or storage container to be safe plus aide in not drying out? 🤗🙋🏻♀️
Oh I totally agree and have some smaller glass bottles with droppers on them as well as some small spray bottles I purchased to use for essential oils and witch hazel to make fragrances. So I'm sure they would work very well.
Ive got an excess of canning jars. I don't use that many little ones for canning.
I've always called the core of a felt tipped marker a wick, but apparently it's still technically called a reservoir like in a fountain pen.
Thanks for the short morning research project and the awesome video. Much love from Maine.
I have heard it called a Barrel.
I call then ‘ink cartridges ‘.
Those thin markers work well to make Boho Beads. Cut them in 2-3 pieces. Cover in cloth or paper and wrap with wire. I have even seen people use old paperclips for the wrap.
The thin markers can be used t create the spine of a book. I am sure you can find tutorials on CZcams as well.
I love that you reduce, reuse and recycle! Have a great day.
Ive been doing this for years now, I use 99% isopropyl alcohol... and a tub, from the dollar store... that my sheets of paper fit in.... and I use cheap markers... brand new, for best color... and voila, I have beautifully colored papers in my journals..I used little spray bottles and sprayed it on... and yes, I did it outside.. . I can color coordinate everything in it... and I use a sheet at the end, to mop up the colored juice in bottom of my tub when I am done each color... No waste :)) I place stencils on them as they dry, so they form patterns... easy peasy!! :))
Miss Natasha, there was no fails in those ones you made, everything was gorgeous!!! Add some black stamping... etc... they were all quite nice !! there was nothing there I didnt like!!
I love that you are upcycling the dried-up ink markers and recycling the empty pens!
You messing with that color wheel was the most relatable thing 😅💕
Thank god something uk 🇬🇧 Ireland.Scotland and Wales all have this.whoopy .
Its so hard here in uk 🇬🇧 as craft shops only sell expensive kits example embroidery kits.art kit just a picture enough paint to do one.etc kids not many do craft as you cant get cheaper paint etc.even in our pound shops not a pound anymore your lucky to get cheap felt tips .at least now you can browse on internet.thank you great tutorial.i sugested to a crafter in america today to look at yours.i hope i didnt offend her art of junk journels.i simply wanted her to be inspired with your talent.im crafter but dont do a channel but i have learnt alot from you thank you for inspiring me uk
i cannot believe that the only thing i threw out last week was markers that did not work! I dont even know what prompt me to test them! I am devestated. Your tutorial is amazing Natasa!
Oh no, the one you called a major fail is just as lovely. I can see flowers and other designs. 😊. You are such a beautiful creator. I enjoy your videos so much. You helped me get back into creating again. Thank 😊 you.
‘Not only I am hopeless with colors, I am hopeless with color wheels too’. Oh, how I can relate! And wow, what an idea, I love those die cut results! Apparently I habitually throw away too much treasure. From now on, when I throw something like that instead of finding a spot to collect it and use in the future, at least I will register some guilt. 😊
I actually did this last year but I put mine in tiny spray bottles from dollar tree. I recently moved and a lot of my markers were stored away and dried up. Now I have the perfect solution for them! Thank you!
I too keep finding lots of photo paper when I'm out thrifting. Thanks for sharing, love the idea of flowers and frames with the finish projects.
Please keep sharing your ideas using things we have around the house (lots of dried markers....not printing photos any more ..lots of photo paper). It means a lot to craft and not have to spend so much money.
The embossing one would make a really cool mini junk journal cover.
You are so stinkin clever. I’d never thought of repurposing the old pens into new inks! Brilliant. Thanks for sharing. Patti
Thanks for the reminder that methylated spirits is alcohol. When I was a kid back in the fifties my Mum used to clean the school at Woombye and I used to go with her and there was an old man who used to hang around the school and drink metho as we called it. Great ideas using old markers to make alcohol ink. Thanks!
I find it so endearing, that you have such a 'big problem' with the colour theory AND that you are so honest about it. 😊
It's just something I can't wrap my mind around, for some reason. I'm the same with warm or cool skin tones, I just cannot tell the difference with whats warm and what's cool
Love the flowers. Butterflies would be pretty especially in a boho styled journal.
I knew about making alcohol inks this way, but your examples, of what to use them for, made me really want to try making them. Thank you so much for all the inspiration!
Try using small spray bottles (the kind you might get in a travel kit) and see what kind of patterns you get with spraying and misting the colors onto paper. I do that with watercolors and love the way the colors transfer.
Exquisite and so thrifty. Here I've been removing ink from my clothes with the alcohol and paper towels. Why is it I never knew about this genius my dear!! Be safe💕🐞 Namaste 🥰
I'm so happy I found this video because I have a few dried up markers that I haven't thrown out yet!
3 words: Fa-Bu-Lous!!! Definitely worth while…great back ground too. As always, thank you!
Thank you Josie!!
You could probably use a spray bottle with alcohol and spritz the ones that you don’t like. The ink would reactivate and soften the appearance of the large blobs of ink.
I am just sick thinking about all the markers and hi-liters I have thrown away over the years. The things I could have done! Thanks you for this tutorial!
I think possibly I may also try using small spray bottles to overspray on papers I'm not real thrilled with to change the look. You are so correct when you said using these inks reminded you of using the gel plates. In fact I have recently viewed some videos that used inks on the gel plate and topped with the acrylic paint so it could be pulled from the gel plate. Thanks for today's inspiration from Northeastern Nevada USA.
I cut the plastic off the fabric wick......so glad you you made this video for others to do Diy inks ♥
You are a recycling genius...taking my hat off to you. TFS xxx
I love your fails. Eye of the beholder, right? Thanks for posting even those you felt were failures. I'll be saving my spent markers now too. 🤓 I have a bunch of crappy gel pens and alcohol. I think I'll give them a try in the meantime.
IT IS INSANE & AMAZING THAT YOU MADE THOSE WITH HOMEMADE ALCOHOL INKS. I’ve been practicing with store bought ones & neither what I’ve made nor honestly even most of the ones people show online look that good. Yours have such a textural intensity & strong pigmentation amazing. Just be VERY careful messing with methylated spirits; literal poison. I’d wear a respirator even if I’m working outdoors with such toxic stuff. Methylated alcohol, epoxy resin- some things you shouldn’t take any chances with.
Also, I will mention since you didn’t mention it- one very good, FAR cheaper alternative to Yupo paper is the white opaque “craft plastic” you can get on Amazon & probably at some arts/crafts or perhaps even fine arts supply stores. As you suspected, Yupo is quite expensive, almost like cotton watercolor paper or something… Whereas you can get 25 big sheets of craft plastics (for small post-card sized sheets I’d cut one of these into 1/4ths, so a pack of 25 can go a long way) for like $8-11… And with 25 sheet packs, even if you use them whole to make BIG compositions it’s a solid deal & will have you stocked up for a while for so cheap. Plus, they’re even more durable than Yupo (probably photo paper as well, being solid plastic the thickness of a notecard), & they wipe completely clean back to white, assuming you don’t use some especially crazy staining color- cleaning off much more effectively than Yupo paper, which means if you make a mistake or create something you don’t like, getting back to a clean sheet to start over is as simple as dumping a little isopropyl alcohol on the sheet & wiping it off almost as smoothly as a dry erase board. Overall I’m very happy with them for alcohol inks (they don’t take gouache or watercolor as well as they claim, but I wouldn’t expect them too anyway- though I am kind of curious to do an acrylic pour on one & see how durable it ends up & whether there are any issues there).
Anyway, I’ve been buying up some relatively old alcohol ink markers that are on clearance all the time at Michael’s (like $0.60 for what used to be $5-6 each markers! I couldn’t resist grabbing a bunch), so now I know how I’ll be using those. Most of them still draw, so I’ll use them up a bit more first, but I think I can do more interesting art by making alcohol ink from them if the results are anything like yours. 🤩
This is great. I’ve been holding on to plain photo paper and you’ve given me the perfect thing to do with them. Plus the tutorial for homemade ink is amazing. 😊 I’m currently working on two bachelors degrees and have been throwing out all my dried up highlighters. 😮 I won’t be doing that anymore. 😉
Thanks for this great bit of information. Now I am kicking myself for all the ones I have thrown out.
This is a wonderful way to use something that would otherwise be thrown out. If you put some scrunched, painted tissue paper, or a piece of aluminium foil that has been scrunched up and then opened out again behind the sticky side of the acetate piece, it may be easier to use, you can seal it with a thin layer of glue, or an acrylic medium that dries clear and use it as a layering piece. I made some cards that way a while ago, it works well with rubber stamps on acetate as well.
When you first tried the regular paper, you ended up with a pink poodle in the upper right corner. This was a great tutorial. Thank you for sharing.💜🐞
I saw the poodle too 😂
Yes I saw that straight away. 🐩💖
😊There was a wolf face on the plain paper that was smooshed
Don't know how I missed this one ! Just recycled my granddaughters markers, will have to go through them again
Lol 😂 never knew how to read a colour wheel myself. I have the exact one 🤣😂 yep blue is the go. 💖
I am soooo happy to find something to do with all of those dry markets! Your papers/tags/creations were all lovely! Thank you!! I got many good ideas. Now I know why I have been saving cereal box bags. 😂
Yay! Thank you!
I do that too, lol. They're so thick, they had to be good for something else😏
I used pure crystal violet stain, that we use in our lab to stain blood smears, in spray bottle they gave me great prints...I let my grandkids help, properly masked n gloved, they had a blast making designs of all the stains we use in the lab...
I must say I thought at first you where making just the cards but then “BAM 💥” another great project cutting those into cute pieces to add to your stash for future journals & projects! Love them all. Thanks for sharing 🥳💕
Love this. Alcohol inks are expensive so I love this idea.
I love experiments like this. Try using a few drops of brass, then when you lay photo paper on top use a braver and run it over the back. Then “peel” the paper back slow slow slowly, stop And restart. Some of my most beautiful papers have been made this way. PS it works well with acrylic paints too.
Smush is my favourite word..loved this it was fascinating 🥰
.
You've outdone yourself this time. I especially the embossed ones
Maybe on the simple paper, before putting the color on it it would be a good idea a layer of gesso to avoid the double colored side, this just in case the other side want to be used differently, and to reinforce the paper. Just an idea.
Needless to say you have all is needed to be creative, you make beautiful things out of nothing 🥰🎨 thank you for sharing!
Thank you for this idea… when working with photo paper and alcohol inks, try working on the opposite side of the photo paper. It has a more wax feel to it and it allows for the ink to move better 😉🤗
Galaxies!! “It’s weird”… I agree not to have red! One red! 😮😂❤
Your way of doing frugal crafting is just great !!! Greetings from Germany...🙂
Yupo paper is fun to work with too. Drop the inks straight onto the paper and the inks blend and spread beautifully. Downside, not the cheapest paper.
I love the first one you did that black and pink. I also made these awhile a go with dried up markers. I had purged the house and found a bag of dried up markers. Thanks for the tips and tricks. You can also mist it with plain alcohol and then dab with a paper towel and you'll have light, white spots and some more movement mixing.
Excellent! Love that it's using up useless markers and making something useful! Too many usefuls! Thanks for this!
Thank you so much!!
First time watching you. You are actually entertainingly funny. Not only I learned plenty, I thoroughly enjoyed your sense of humor! Thank you for the laughs!
You've opened a whole new world to me!! This is such a clever way to get your money's worth out of your markers and skincare bottles ✌✌
Glad it was helpful! Thank you :)
Great ideas and inspiration! Some of the embossed glossy paper looks like tiles!
I can't wait to try this. It's a perfect outdoor activity in our lovely Australian spring. Thank you!
Agreed! Thank you Tina :)
You do the most interesting projects on your channel! These alcohol inks made the most beautiful backgrounds.
Wow that's a brilliant idea! I'll collect my markers from now on and ask my daughter to keep my granddaughters markers, she goes through so many! I wish I knew more about die-cutting, I will try to find a video, I know nothing about it! It's so tempting to learn and get one!
Excellent project! I had loads of dried up pens I tossed ☹ this is why I hate getting rid of stuff!
Well, you have taught me a lot. Save those old dried up markers. Recycle the leftover markers. Thanks
Omg, genius! Darn it, I've thrown away hundreds over the years!
I laughed so hard at your orange "hairball", lol. That was funny. I did this back when pandemic had started and I couldn't find any kind of rubbing alcohol anywhere. Hubby spent 4 dollars on a bottle for me. Good grief he would die if had to spend that now.
Thanks! OMG I was thrilled when I saw this upload. You have saved me so much money with all your tips and tricks. Hope you are always here! I actually get projects done with you because you just inspire me so much. You are so REAL!!
Oh my goodness, thank you so very much!!!!
I like the outcome of the used up markers who knew😮
It’s a wonderful idea. Great background papers and using up stuff that would otherwise get thrown away makes it totally worthy!!! Your taking the time to develop and share is awesome- thank you.
Glad I save my ordinary face serum bottles! Now I need to start saving markers. Re staining glass, I faux stained my front door and it’s subtle but beautiful!
photo paper flower looks pretty
Leave it to you to FINDA WAY! I've been saving all my old markers, tincture and spice bpttles for years. Even have a huge supply of Alcohol since Covid...Can't wait to try this!
Good Day Natasa!!
W@W!!! BRILLIANT PROJECT (S)! I happen to have some glossy 4 x 6 photo cards I'd been planning to experiment with using regular drawing or writing inks, but as yet not gotten around to! Then,, I had been saving some dried out markers thinking how could I revive them over the years and THAT too went on the back burner..UNTIL * NOW*!!! HUGS & KISSES THANKS!! 👍🙏🎨✍🌹💐🎶! I can't wait to do this! By the way, those two tags you deemed ' fails' , look AWESOME imho!!! All came out grest!! Wish I had a die cut machine or access, but maybe someday. School library has some but geared to kids and they ( dies) are too large for the 4x6 sizes.
I so enjoy you animated dialogue and outlook on your creative process!
Have a Blessed Day, Every Day!! 💖 🙋🏻♀️ Mindi USA.
Hey Mindi, I’ve seen videos on CZcams how to die cut & emboss (embossing folders) without a machine… people have so many amazingly creative ideas
@Vicky-Maree Wurst.. Hi Vicky! Do you know of any sites that show how? I know there are hand embossing tools, like brass templates that you can hand emboss.. I'm looking to heat emboss and wonder what best products are..? I bought a clear Stamp pad from Hobby Lobby and it didn't work! Unless it was the emboss powder.. All that stuff So Pricey, and some so shoddy.. I'm going to try adding watered down vegetable glycerin to the ink pad and see.saw that on CZcams for hand lettering ( with nib)embossing..Cool!
Thanks and Happy Crafting Bliss! 🤗🙋🏻♀️🙏 - Mindi

I’ve used plastic stencils in the past to do a similar look to embossing folders by having two of the same designs and putting the paper in between them both. You can use some tape to hold them together so they don’t move.
Then use a small stylus to go into the grooves.
I watch heaps of CZcams videos and then see if I like the person’s technique and how they present it too, if I like their technique and how they share it, then I’ll check out their channel and other videos, which often then links me to more ideas & more people demonstrating what they’ve got to share.
Hope this has been helpful?

Yeah that’s unfortunate that the stamp pad didn’t work 🥴😔 can you take it back & tell them? I’ve heard the same about vegetable glycerin too. I Google in CZcams by putting DIY in front of what I like to find out about, soooooo many hours have gone into watching. I’ve now got in my notes on my phone, a folder for favorites so I can go back over the ideas, techniques & tips that I get a lot out of. Happy crafting 🫶🦋
I'm watching this late at night and laughing out loud "What did you THINK was going to happen?" ha ha ha..25:11 (I talk to myself the same way)...This was a lot of fun and very useful! Going to stop throwing away those dried up markers. Love the way you process things, and always clearly demonstrated and explained. Thank you.
Thank you so much :)
Heck yes it's worth while. It's a beautiful sunny day here in Illinois and I'm going to sit out on my patio and do this.
Now I'm so sorry I got rid of a full bag of dried markers. These are beautiful.
Hi Natasha. You are the recycling Queen 🫅. Never heard of doing this. Thank you for sharing your time and talent. Hugs 🤗 Dee ❤️🇺🇸❤️
Nice !
I bought such inks in a very low price shop and I am glad that I can reuse their bottles. These inks had glitter too. Something I will add to my DIY inks.
Wonderful! Have fun :)
❤❤❤❤ OMGOSH I LOVE THIS TUTORIAL. YES ❤❤❤❤ IT IS WORTH WHILE. I LOVE YOUR POSITIVE VIBES, THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR SHARING ALL YOUR VIDEOS ❤❤❤
THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I SEE YOUR YOUR ALCOHOL TUTORIAL ❤❤❤❤❤😮😮😮WOW !!!!!!!
Absolutely amazing
Great presentation! You unexpectedly made me laugh out loud a couple times - like my mom used to do when she (very uncharacteristically) uttered an English swear word in her heavy Dutch accent ;)
You should try it on your gelli plate. I drop it on and let it dry, then use a layer of acrylic to pull the print. It is beautiful!
Natasha I just love your commentary! You crack me up and i love you! Thank you soooo much for your tutorials, so helpful
Love this idea. I’m going to do it.
Love these so much. Thanks....
I was wondering if I could use cheap vodka? 🤔🙂 (I already have it from another project).
Yes. i love alcohol inks! You can also use it on aluminum.
Thank you so much for sharing the process of making homemade alcohol inks. This is a brilliant idea which recycles old dried out markers. I love it.
This is FABULOUS! Thank you!
Love this. It's brilliant 💕
Love this ideas. I've made from food color and just got some hobby lobby haul. I took what I made and put in spray bottles gonna try using on photo paper now thank for the idea.
