This is my first attempt at using metal sheets. I first put a few drops of Adiondack's alcohol ink on and mixed two colors with Adirondack Blending Solution. The solution is fun to use. When it was dry I ran it through my Cuttlebug. Using metal paper or sheets was Thursday's Ways to use it Challenge. Thank you for looking.

This is so elegant, absolutely beautiful! I'd never have thought about using alcohols on metal. One thing I've found which works well to blend alcohol inks is to take an alcohol wipe (the little ones they wipe your skin with before you get a shot) and spread them that way. Depending on how moist the sponge is, you can really control the background -- very moist to lighten them, drier to keep them more intense.
Thanks for sharing this.
