Hello, Friends!
So many of us are longing for spring, more light and color... I think Elena's new project is just like a gorgeous ray of sunshine in the middle of bleak February... Enjoy!
Hello!
Today I would like to inspire you to experiment with alcohol inks. I have created a mini-album using bright vibrant colors of inks. That is what I really need to do on cloudy and moody days.
2. The next step is to glue this fabric to the firm chipboard base using Soft Matte Gel.
3. Then I folded the fabric to create nice angles.
4. To create the texture I applied Light Paste through a stencil.
5. Then I painted with Alcohol Inks and used Alcohol Blending Solution to get smoother color transitions and gradients.
Here are a few pics of the proccess.
7. When I was happy with the result, I started adding different embellishments adhering them with Soft Gloss Gel.
For the final touches I added some delicious Art Ingredients: Sterling Glass Glitter, Zinc Glass Beads and Antique Silver Art Sugar.
So the cover is ready! Then I added some embellishments to the pages, created a handmade binding and added my pages into the cover.
Now I am waiting for the bright summer days to take photos of my kids and put them into this album!
The Alcohol Inks colors which I used are:
The Alcohol Inks colors which I used are:
- Sail Boad Blue

I hope I managed to inspire you to try out some alcohol inks from your stash. Thank you for reading!
Have a great creative time!
Elena Morgun

Wow, LOVE the colour palette!
This is beautiful. Just one question, are the inside pages chipboard covered with fabric which has been covered in gesso as well. X
a stunning project and great step by step. Did you use a felt pad to apply the alcohol Inks or a brush ?
