Instructions:
Drop several drops of each alcohol ink on to your craft mat – they should be near each other but not on top of each other.
Add 2-3 drops of metallic mixative.
Add 3-5 drops of Blending Solution.
Lay glossy cardstock face down in the puddle and twist slightly so there is one solid puddle.
Grab one corner and lift – set aside to dry.
This puddle can be used for more than one piece of cardstock. Add more blending solution if inks begin to dry or to make colors lighter.
