OXIDES INKS

Happy Friday and hello Distress Oxide Inks!

Have you played with Oxide Inks yet? I am having so much fun splashing water around and discovering how they react. It's interesting to see the results using different papers! 

Speaking of splashing...here are two cards made with the Fishes stamp from Carabelle Studio.

The Oxide Inks used were the same colors for both cards along with the same color Zig Watercolor Markers. The only difference... the color of ink stamped for the fishes and embossing powder.  

Two totally different looks!

The fish were stamped in Yetti White onto Strathmore Mixed Media and then heat embossed.

I then applied Molotow, liquid masking fluid, over the fish. This protects the stamped image from getting any of the Oxide Inks from the BG on them. Be sure that Molotow is dry before starting the BG!

Here's the fun...! Swirling of color and playing with water.

I love the results and now it's time to unveil the fish and give them some color.

After watercoloring the fish I went back and added black gloss to their eyes.

Black Versafine ink was used here along with heat embossing in clear powder.

Exact same colors with Distress Oxides and Zigs.

Which look do you like best?

Tomorrow, Saturday April 15th, Impressive Ideas will be doing demo's with these wonderful Distress Oxide Inks. Come and see what we love about them and what papers are our favorites. Demo's will be from 2-6, hope to see you there. Plenty of inks and re-inkers in stock but they come and go fast!
