Ink Splats make me Happy

I bought some 'plain-Jane' page dividers to help organize my binder that holds all of the course materials for my Photoshop classes.  Came home, got it all organized...tabs, page dividers and such.  It should have made me happy, right? 

Nope...I wasn't feelin' it!  It needed something!  Then I remembered those Adirondack alcohol inks I got a few weeks ago and voila'...

I used Tim Holtz Alcohol Ink Splatter technique (Video Tutorial Here).  All you need to try this yourself is a somewhat glossy cardstock, alcohol ink, and compresssed air (I used our computer dust bunny cleaner).

I put down some fun strips of tape and a big funky sticker before adding ink to this one, and I used some metallic alcohol ink too.  Just look at that shimmer...

Speaking of fun things, Vanessa from A Fanciful Twist, just posted some free printable Valentine's day cards on her blog...always a treat, and they are super cute!

Now, off you go to make ink splatters and print cute cards ;) ;)

What fun!! I used my inks last night on gourds. I want to do what you did. Can I get some cards made like this? (Hint, Hint)
Miss you!

Wow! That looks really fun. :) The air compressor really gives it that airbrush art feel. You did such a great job, Jamie!
