Grungy Monday 13-Alcohol Inks

For this week's challenge for Grungy Monday over at Studio L3 we were to use Alcohol Inks!

They are among some of my favorite supplies! I found some Stampbord that I had forgotten I had, so I set out to use it today!

Stamps are from I Brake For Stamps:

Lion Face

Ruler Background

As you can see from the closeup its very dimensional-3 layers of Stampbord :)

This was a fun one! Over at Studio L3 we were supposed to use this technique for the challenge. I had this shallow shadow box thingy (not sure really what it is called) so I decided to do something with it today. Here is my result!

I Brake For Challenges: Techniquing It Up

This is for a brand new challenge-I Brake For Challenges! This week we were supposed to be using ANY technique. Being I got some new Acrylic Paint Dabbers I thought I would try a Tim Holtz Technique called Dabber Resist. This stamp is called Ornate Inchies Background and is from I Brake For Stamps

Grungy Monday 9:Shabby Chic

This is my Contribution for the Grungy Monday Challenge #9 over at Studio L3.

I caved and went and bought some Acryic Paint Dabbers for this technique. I didn't think I would really need to, but I have seen so many cool techniques using them that I decided to pick them up :)

Anyway-really fun technique for sure!

Stamps are from I Brake For Stamps and use these two sheets:

Leo's Art (one of my all time favorites)

and the mesh stamp from Beach Memoirs
