    These are gorgeous! I never would have thought that the alcohol inks would serve as the adherent for the gilding flakes and the foil! Fabulous!

    Beautiful cards Jess! Every time I see your alcohol ink backgrounds, I want to run out and buy all the things so I can try it too. One of these days!

    Hi Jessica,
    Thank you for such a great video. I loved the technique and the styles of your cards! I will attempt to create something like this as well!

    Is Yupo paper, similar to glossy paper?

    Reply
    • jessica frost-ballas says

      February 26, 2018 at 11:34 am

      It’s similar but it definitely reacts a little better with alcohol inks then glossy. Yupo is actually a plastic paper where glossy just has that coating on top.

🎉🎉🎉 Well sometimes life with a senior pup gets in the way of the best laid plans 😂 but I did want to share a little something I’ve been working on behind the scenes. 😉 It’s not quite ready for a Small Business Saturday launch as I had hoped but it’s getting there! I’ve been working on my first collection of alcohol ink art and resin pieces (small art pieces, coasters, magnets, pendants, and more) and hope to make them available for purchase very soon! I’ll also have a limited number of custom commissions available at launch! ❤️ Thanks to all my crafty friends for their encouragement to put myself out there and I can’t wait to share more with you VERY soon! 😉 For more info on my launch and some sneak peeks head over and follow my new account @artbyjfb! ❤️❤️❤️ ••• #alcoholink #alcoholinkart #alcoholinkartist #resinart #resinartist #fluidart #abstractartdaily #allthesparklejfb #smallbusinesssaturday #geodecoasters

disclosure

I design for several companies because I truly love their products! Anything I recommend on my blog is something that I genuinely love and regularly use. I do not get paid for product reviews and I will never recommend a product that I do not like or would not use.

I am affiliated with Simon Says Stamp, Hero Arts Rubber Stamps, Concord & 9th, WPlus9, Papertrey Ink, Altenew, and OrganizeMore which means I receive a small commission (at no additional cost to you!!) when you click on my links and make a purchase through any store.

Any commission I receive is put towards the running of my blog so I greatly appreciate your support!
