  • This never-fail alcohol ink technique is easy and gives stunning results every time! I tried it a few ways (different inks, different papers) so you can see what will work for you! And I have clean-up tips, too! (always work in a well-ventilated area and follow all safety rules for working with alcohol inks).
    If you try this technique and post on Instagram, be sure to tag me ( @ardythpr1 ) so I can comment!

    Loved this video! What a lot of mixed media artists do is scan in their original backgrounds so they can print them out and use them over and over again. Many never use the original and keep it on file.

      That's interesting! What a great way to get multiples done, too! Thanks for sharing that and for watching!

    Thanks for this technique with stencils. Right up my alley. In your gold tones example (2:45 mins), the inks will always reactivate bc you're adding the same solvent. Try lift ink instead, with a baby wipe or dabber, and you'll get the layered look. For cleaning, I buy 99% or 100% alcohol from a solvent supplier - one of whom makes an acetone blend (proprietary) that works for cleaning and specifically for working with alcohol inks (better than blending solution). This also cleans off Distress and other acrylic paints that are stuck to hard surfaces. Rubbing alcohol, hand sanitizer have insufficient levels to be effective in cleaning (need > 90%). Medical grade sanitizer is better and has glycerine, so is great for all craft cleaning in general. Most countries have solvent makers, because retail exports are prohibited. Prices are incredibly low, because they're not packaged for specialty crafts. Oh - and they also make 99% acetone for removing dip / acrylic nail coatings without the beauty-shop price tags.

      Cool! Thanks for sharing all that knowledge! I will definitely investigate further! And thanks for watching!

    Hi my name is Trish ( just using the husband’s account) I really loved this idea. Just a thought, when you wanted to shift the stencil or layer another on top, you could use alcohol lift ink on a sponge dauber to create that second pattern. But I have gotta try this.

    • @ardyth
      @ardyth  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Oh yes! That is a really neat idea! I will try that! Thanks for sharing and for watching!

  • @IshaniScards
    @IshaniScards 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    That red card with trees is gorgeous..love the way you combined the colors. Also.. I'll remember to not take off the stencil.. till it dies! I may have been very impatient in my previous tries 😬

    • @ardyth
      @ardyth  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Haha! I did take the stencil off, saw the ink moving and quickly put it back on, and it still turned out. Thanks for dropping by, Ishani!

    I love making my own cards, these have given me pause for thought. I have lots of thank you cards to write after Christmas and now have a head brimming with ideas. Thank you so much. Lots of health, happiness, love and peace for 2022. You won't need anything else, trust me.

    oh wow Ardyth you absolutely outdid yourself with these cards! I love how you used my stencils and they created some amazing patterns on those ornaments! I really appreciate you using them and love how you were able to create so many cards with just 3 panels.

    • @ardyth

    These panels and cards are beautiful Ardyth. I recently bought Jacquard alcohol ink Pinata color clean up solution it works great just pour some on and wipe away with paper towel. Blending solution does the same thing too.

    • @ardyth
      @ardyth  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Oh! Thanks for that tip - I will definitely try it! And thanks for watching!

    Nice to see some one else trying this-I use stencils with alcohol ink in my mixed media and fine art work and I never see it on TH-cam. On cleaning I do find that most times stencils will get pretty clean if you let them set in a shallow bath of isopropyl alcohol for a bit. I use a paper storage tub with a lid so I can contain the fumes and just throw my stencils in there as I work. Let them soak for a few hours, then wipe them down with a paper towel or shammy and some clean isopropyl. Its pretty cheap to get big bottles of isopropyl alcohol but even the bottles you buy at the grocery are big enough to clean a batch of stencils if you use the tub method.

    • @ardyth
      @ardyth  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      That's great advice - running out of alcohol while filming certainly didn't help! lol! Thanks for sharing that and for watching!

      Yes, I need to try some other techniques on the plastic. I noticed even with this one, that the inks didn't seem to get under the stencil quite as much, or maybe because I used lighter colours. Clearly there is more experimentation to do! lol! Thanks for watching!

    Great idea to use the larger stencils that way. Many times in the past when I ordered a stencil it was not the small one but a huge one more for mixed media not Cardmaking. My lack of checking. I’ve used them but not like this, cutting them in fourths. Thanks for the idea. I love alcohol inks and any new ideas are very much appreciated!

      I’ve heard Grafix plastic also works and supposedly you can lift back to white. I haven’t tried it yet though. Some of my inks stained the yupo paper and blue stained the Nara paper which was supposed to lift back to white. I used Picasso alcohol inks.

  • @anneslinger2189
    @anneslinger2189 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    SO pretty. And tbh, a lot of the stains will stay on your stencils. But what i have done is this: lay your stencil (inky side up)on top of a piece if cardstock. Use an alcohol- soaked cotton ball (or paper towel ,or whatever) to wipe over the stencil. The regular cardstock will absorb the alcohol (which is now very colorful). This doesn't work so well with Yupo, because the alcohol doesn't absorb, so you end up just pushing it around. If you're lucky, you get ANOTHER colorful background, but fairly different because it's on cardsrock.

    • @ardyth

    Hi Ardyth, great job! I’m wondering if rubbing/soaking your stencils in either methylated spirits (it contains an alcohol), or acetone ( another organic solvent), might get them clean. Of course do this outside, or in a well ventilated area due to the fumes! I personally would try soaking. Use a container that has a lid, to cut down on evaporation and smell. You need a solvent with the same chemical nature as the inks to ‘dissolve’ them. You could of course use vodka, but that might be a bit expensive! LOL. Good luck! Also, MERRY CHRISTMAS. 😀🦘🐨🎆🎇🌠🎊🎁🎉

I have also used it to take ink from shirts that went thru the wash with an ink pen…a real mess. Before they went into the dryer I liberally poured Murthy’s on the damp shirts gave them a little scrub, let them set over nite and threw them into the wash and they came out looking like new! Will let you know how they turn out….

    I've watched your video twice, I'm sure I've missed something in your excellent tutorial, so I have a question. Did you remove the stencil after 30 minutes or after the 3 hours of drying time? I think I'd like this technique and don't really mind staining my stencils.

    • @ardyth
      @ardyth  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I see why that isn't clear. I did actually try both, but when I removed it after 30 minutes, the ink kept moving and I lost the pattern, so I recommend leaving it on until the ink is at least tacky to the touch, and not runny. Hope that helps. I know you'll enjoy this technique! Thanks for watching!

  • @roxanneklinger3828
    @roxanneklinger3828 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I watch a lot of pro artists use alcohol inks, they dry their inks as they are using them with a heat gun or a very warm hair dryer. I am not sure how that would work with your stencils if you wanted to leave them in place to dry. As fast as alcohol ink dries, it will collect under the stencil and will take much longer to dry by air as you have found out. That red one really was something. I would have difficulty cutting into it as well.
