Creative Chemistry 102: Alcohol Ink Ombre

Oh yeah!  That was my response to this technique.  The ombre coloring was created using Alcohol Paper and two different colors of alcohol ink.  Tim suggested using a "light", "bright" and "earthtone" ink.  I didn't have any "light" inks so I applied the bright to the felt pad and daubed it onto the top 1/3 of the page.  I then added the "earthtone" ink to the same spot felt pad and blended the two colors with the top 1/3 and the second 1/3 of the page.  Finally, I added "earthtone" to a clean spot on the felt pad and daubed it onto the bottom third.  I replaced the used felt pad with a new pad and added some Ink Blending Solution.  Just a bit.  This is used to blend the different 1/3rds together in order to create seamless-like transitions blending as you go.  In person, there's more transition than the camera picked up on.  After the ink was dry, I stamped the HeartFelt Creations Delicate Aster images using Archival Black ink.  Oh yeah!!!
