alcohol ink on metal tape


Just some more fun with alcohol inks!  I love them and I want every color!  I always want all the colors. 
I applied gesso to the tag with a texture comb.  I then applied plummer's metal tape after the gesso dried.  I love the texture.  I then applied the alcohol inks.  I think it looks pretty cool.  What do you think?
I've made a bunch of tags today.  I'm thinking I will copy my sister in the way that she stored/displayed some of her tags.  Check out her blog at

    I love this tag! And the technique ... way cool! I was at Lowe's today - I knew I forgot something - the metal tape! I've seen Tim use it - I want to play. Guess I have to go to Lowe's again... lol

    hello Angela,

    the colors really look like a rainbow ! You let the gesso dry completely before you put on the metaltape ? Does this tape sticks on its own on the gesso ? And how did you apply the alcohol inks between the textured "ups and downs" ?

    greetings from Belgium

    I like alcohol inks but haven't quite figured out where they work for me. I do have some flat metal tape in my drawer. Maybe I can do what you did here and use it in my journal somehow. Hmmm, you have me thinking.

    Brilliant. Both the idea and the colours! What a great way to create texture that you can alcohol ink. Now I have to go try this!

I am not a gardener but I do love flowers.  It is so much fun for me to get out my macro lens and spend time photographing flowers up close and personal.  I am linking with http://www.shinethedivinecreativityisaspiritualpractice.com/ and http://macromonday2.blogspot.ca/

  I am on a scroll roll.  This is the second one I started this week.  I love the soft romantic feel of these pieces.  I love working with bright and cheerful colours but occasionally I have to play with a different set of colours.   These scrolls are coming together faster than I thought they would.  That also feels good.   Sometimes I need a project that can be completed quickly.
