Tim Holtz Alcohol Ink Splatter Technique

One of my 43 Yahoo Groups (not all active, of course! LOL!!!) had a Tim Holtz Alcohol Ink Splatter Technique Mingle . . . Please click on the blue underlined title to link to video . . .
I used a cocktail stirrer instead of a can of compressed air to "blow" the ink around . . . the ink I used was Pinata Alcohol Ink from USArtQuest . . . the "cloud" stamp is from A Stamp in the Hand . . . the "butterfly and flourish stamps" are from a $9.99 inexpensive set of 5 clear stamp sets I bought at Costco that were made by Inkadinkado . . . the bird stamp is from Impression Obsession . . . the adorable birdhouse die cut is from Printworks Collection . . .

I seem to be obsessed with bird houses and birds lately . . . hmmmmmmmm . . . LOL!!!!!!

Have fun!!!!!!

I keep seeing posts about that technique. I saw Tim's video and have cans of air and alcohol ink so what's the deal why haven't I jumped on the bandwagon too? I like your modifications and the final result.

Hmmm. I'll bet you have a lot of them drink stir thingies hangin around doncha. Birds seem to be the thing right now. This however is very cute, clever, faboulous. As always coming from you! Hope you are well!
