Did you know you can use your glossy accents to create vibrant, and sparkling accents. First you'll need glossy accents, ranger alcohol inks, paintbrush, transparency, and some glitter(optional). Let's get started! First take out your transparency and squirt a good sized amount onto your transparency.
Next we're going to add some alcohol inks. As little or as much as you want. Then mix it together with your paintbrush. I chose a circular pattern, but you can do what ever brushstroke you want.
I mixed the yellow than repeated the process only this time I added orange, and continued mixing. Keep working this process until you get the colors blended the way you want.
When I've got the look I wanted I stop and add a little chunky glitter ; )
Let this dry and then you can cut it out in what ever shape you want. This technique gives you this transparent pop of color and sparkle, and it's so much fun to make!
This is the Layout I used it on: "My Beautiful Ayla"
(This picture really doesn't capture the color and shine from the circle, it's really vibrant in person)
Here's the same technique used to create an earth shape for a earth day card.
Just beautiful!!! Love love love it

I CAN'T WAIT TO TRY THIS, IT'S BEAUTIFUL. I am a little tired of buying all the embellishments, I love the idea of making my own personal embells.
