Hi everyone, Adriana here today and I am exploring techniques on creating wonderful backgrounds with Couture Creations Alcohol Inks on normal art journalling paper and books.  

I have been playing around with Alcohol inks on Synthetic Alcohol Ink paper and I also love creating in my art Journal book.  I have created a video to show you all how to create on Synthetic Alcohol Ink paper and then while the inks are still wet on the Synthetic Alcohol Ink paper, I place a page from my art journal (300gsm) over the top , rubbing the back and presto a unique transfer of the alcohol ink colour onto the art journalling card stock is achieved.  

I love the effect… and this is now ready to be stamped, coloured or using a stencil and some texture paste over the page.

After I created my background, on my journal page, I stamped some images with the
Mini Stamp and Die set from the SWEEPING PLAINS collection
