June 2019


I went to Blick on 23 St. and bought some items. I got these droppers to use with my alcohol ink.

I found a small tile in a random box of craft items and painted it with alcohol ink. I wrote the Chinese word for Spring on it. I ordered some ribbons and fabric strips from Color Crazy and made the locker hooked design from one of her patterns.



I participated in the Rag Bag Gals sticks and stones amulet bag swap, I put my treasures on top of the Chinese symbol for double happiness.

I've been experimenting with alcohol inks.  I had bought this Canson recycled paper that had a glossy side.  I decided to try the inks on it.  It doesn't work well, you can see on the reverse side the way the inks just got absorbed.  After I finished the page, I thought my Carmen Miranda singing stamp would look good on the yellow, so I stamped it using green ink.
