I knew I wanted to use alcohol inks, was going to use Yupo but changed my mind and used glossy cardstock instead. The inks do react differently on glossy to Yupo - the main difference is they tend to set quickly and stay put, so you can't play around with Blending Solution in the same way. However you can get a lovely build up of colours:



The Carabelle flowers are also stamped on glossy with the Memento inkpad and then coloured  in:



I thought the background was a little dark so decided to stencil over the top with the leafy mandala:



Then I scratched in a few extra doodle lines before the paint was too dry:



However, looking at it I decided I didn't like it so tried colouring over the top with coloured pencils:



I liked this effect much better - the paint provides a key for colouring:



Then I layered up my flowers adding a bit of curl here and there and outlined some of the stencilled pattern:



Add some Ranger enamel dots and some Tim Holtz words and there you have it:
