Amanda, great idea! I saw a recipe a while back using rubbing alcohol, alcohol inks and pearl powders, but I never thought to use plain ol' water! That'll make it much easier. Thanks for sharing this video and idea!

I just recently bought some of the inks, and I'm looking forward to using them. I like your idea.

TFS,

Hi Amanda. I enjoyed your video. I ordered alcohol inks from OMC, but they refunded my $ so now I have the applicators and no ink LOL
