Crackerbox & So Suzy Stamps with Alcohol Inks

Hi Everybody,
time to showcase a few of the older Crackerbox & So Suzy Stamps. Those flowers were created by Olesya from the DT and they are just gorgeous.


My stamp supplies:
Simple Birthday Olesya Bloom, Olesya Side Bloom

Curious how I made this card? I made it with alcohol inks on Yupo paper
I started out with some clear alcohol - you can also use blending solution, but its a lot more expensive. I use 99% alcohol, you can get that much cheaper on the internet.


Used my heat gun to blow out the ink (butterscotch)


Added 3 drops of yellow.


Waited until it was almost dry


Sprayed it lightly with alcohol


Stamped with Catherine Pooler ink. It looked a little feeble, so I heat embossed it in black. You have to be careful with the heat embossing, as the Yupo paper warps easily.


Added little accents with blue ink and then added splatters. I heat embossed the sentiment using paint chips and mounted it with foam tape.

Katzelkraft - Stampotique Raven

Hi Everyone, Do you know that   Katzelkraft has aquired Stampotique stamps? This fun raven is designed by Daniel Torrente (#6314). I used an old background from my stashs.  I stamped the bird and colored it with alcohol ink markers.  I brushed distrss ink onto the background and added some pattern with the   Mandala Magic stencil  from Funky Fossil Designs.I used one of the border stamps on the left for more interest.  Stamped the sentiment  and doodled a frame around the sentiment.Added a googly eye to the bird and drew in some eye lashes.  The stamps I used are from the following sets: Spiral Borders - KTZ286,  Whatchamacallit  - KTZ276  (FRANCE) Spiral Borders  - KTZ286 , Whatchamacallit  - KTZ276 (USA) Hope you liked this - I'll be back next Wednesday with more Katzelkraft inspiration.  Thanks for visiting! Happy Stamping! Linking up with: Simon Says Wednesday challenge  - fur or feathers
