Tag it On and Wednesday Stamper

There are 2 things that I dearly love about mixed media art. They are things I didn't experience when I was doing only oil painting or watercolor painting. These two things are: alcohol inks and flourishes.

Wednesday Stamper wants us to do art with the theme: I Love. This tag contains the 2 things I love.

Dragon Lady's Tag it On wants us to use acetate and alcohol inks. I have many alcohol inks, but I do not have acetate. I used what I had. I used a piece of plastic document cover (the top part of the card) and Sheer Heaven. I'm not sure what SH is made of. It could be acetate; it could be a toothed plastic. Anyway the lower part was done with the AI on the toothed side of SH. The lower right side and diagonally up toward the left (green to red) was done with the AI on the slick side of the Sheer Heaven. The stamp is from Purple Onion.

    A fabulous take on the theme Faye. I love the colours, so summer-like. Isn't it interesting how the effect changes depending on what side of the acetate you applied the AIs. I too love flourishes.
    Thanks for playing along with my challenge.
