Pile It On Techniques

This week at Pile It On we would like to see your favorite Technique on a card or project. What a great way to get our creative juices flowing. I see things all the time and think wow I'm going to have to get my whatever out and do that. It is always so much fun.

So for this week at Pile It on we have a great Sponsor in the Wax Fruit Company. Must check out these images. These are so wonderful. I used a Gerber Daisy (Here).

For my Favorite Technique I came up with something a little new today.Using Alcohol ink on acrylic is one of my favorite techniques but it is impossible to print a Digi Image onto Acrylic.  Using alcohol ink on top of a Copic colored image that is covered in several layers of Ranger Ultra Thick embossing powder works great though. Sometimes I'm just too clever for myself. .

I colored the image as I normally would and then used Stampendous embossing ink in a roll on container (like a dauber) to cover the image and sprinkeled on Ultra Thick embossing powder, heat it up then add more, heat and add until you get the finish you want.

I just love the way this flower turned out.

You can see the background green piece a little better here.

I used the sketch from Kathy's Waffel  Sketch File Blog.
