Default WT203 - Bottoms Ups

Bottoms Up ladies! Sorry...couldn't resist the fun title. Your challenge today is to get out your alcohol. No...not the drinking kind but the crafting kind! I think you'll have a lot of fun with this challenge! If you stop and think about it...there are a LOT of alcohol products in the crafting markets. Think Copic Markers, blending solution, rubbing alcohol for various techniques such as polished stone, alcohol inks. And if you don't have any of the above...don't stress...how about themed stamps? Now just a quick note: If you USUALLY use Copic markers...try out NEW ways to use them. Let's step out of our box today! I did!

Please remember to put WT203 in your keywords section and post a link back here. Please upload only NEW designs for this challenge. We want to get you creating today!

My Sample: Vintage Gift Jar

Shel9999's sample: A Real Friend

WT203 Design Submissions

Happy stamping!

Julia

Oh, I get to be first! I'll play - it will probably have to be polished stone, since that the only alcohol technique I can think of!

Going to have to get creative with this one. Not sure what I have that will work but it will give me something to think about on the treadmill. Thanks for the challenge!

I'm not sure if I read this technique somewhere or made it up using elements of stuff I've read, but here's a background made with Sharpie pens and rubbing alcohol: Watch the time

GREAT challenge, Julia! I have to say, making the Mimosa BEFORE I started stamping may have been a mistake! LOL!

Well, I do use Copics, but I'm still a beginner so I wanted to use them in a more 'ambitious' way. Here's my

My mom is helping make my quilt. I have to take some seams out, and redo one row. My mom says she'll create her idea in a while.

Ok, I am afraid of alcohol inks (no good results so far) so I settled for an "alcohol" image. Didn't think about having a mimosa, like Faith; but that would have been way fun.
