**BLOG HOP** Clear Scraps & Quick Quotes My Little Devil Layout Day #3
November 14, 2012
Welcome to Day #3 of the Clear Scraps + Quick Quotes Blog Hop!
Hello again Clear Scraps fans--Kay here bringing you a Halloween page filled with both Clear Scaps & Quick Quotes goodies. I've been wanting to scrap this photo of my fur-baby Toby for the longest time and these papers by Quick Quotes gave me the opportunity to do just that. This photo was taken last year on Halloween where I dressed Toby up as my 'little devil'--which in turn gave me the title for this page.
I've used a Clear Scraps XL Scallops shape as the base for my page & the following supplies by Quick Quotes: Be Afraid...Color Vellum Quote, Halloween 200 paper, Halloween 100 paper, Halloween 300 paper, Halloween 400 paper, Halloween 500 phrases & Mango Mai Tai Chalk Ink.
All papers used are by Quick Quotes. I also had a lot of fun creating that colorful background on the Clear Scraps acrylic. Here's a closeup of the background.
The trick to get those random splatters are alcohol inks & a can of compressed gas duster.
Directly squeeze drops of alcohol inks directly onto your acrylic then give those drops of ink quick blasts with the compressed gas duster & you'll instantly have random streaks of ink on your background making for a very unique look! Don't forget to give your ink a few minutes to dry. Here's another closeup.
I also once again stamped directly onto my acrylic with black Staz On. As always, do remember to use a permanent solvent ink when stamping on acrylic--using any other kind of ink will cause your image to smear. The black flourishes seen here were made with a stamp.
You can find more details & close ups on my blog. Thanks for stopping by & enjoy the rest of the week!

LOL so cute! What a novel idea to spread the ink. Love the LO, it's really colorful and full of interest.

Great technique to spread the ink around. Also, your dog and that costume made my day. Thank you so much for sharing.
