Alcohol Ink and Stencils, will it work?

[@GinaBeana_Tootsie]

I luv the way it created a almost stamped tile very beautiful job clara 💜😀🐈‍⬛

[@ClaraLawrence]

Thanks. There are tiny stencils that are similar to what I used that would give that look. Like Mexican tiles. Humm.

[@3BoardChicks]

Beautiful!! I purchased the stencils! Thank You!

[@ClaraLawrence]

Thanks and you are very welcome

[@arleenaartvark1141]

Thank you Clara ! I’m so glad i found part 1! ❤

[@ClaraLawrence]

Giggle. Just answered your other question with the link to this one. Glad you found it! Happy Easter.

[@ArtByJulieE]

Beautiful, absolutely beautiful 😍 So sorry I missed your lives 😢 I love how these came out! I'd cover the main focus and over shoot the edges with like a brass or gold spray paint and then seal and resin them. ❤

[@ClaraLawrence]

Thanks so much and those are great ideas.

[@sandraboyer5060]

Lovely ❤first time here!!! I actually was wondering how this would turn out I have several stencils and tons of alcohol ready for challenge. Looks cool thank you.

[@ClaraLawrence]

Thanks so much and welcome. I've been digging around my stencils for the next project to work on. Have fun!

[@QutifulQueenCrafts]

You my darling are amazing!!! I love your personality. I am now a new subscriber. Watching with intent to learn and create 🤗

[@deborahstilwell8631]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤LOVE IT CAN THIS BE DONE ON CANVAS ALSO????

[@funnyg460]

Hi I am new to all this so what was it that you put on the canvas first I am thinking alcohol but want to make sure. Thank you for video.

[@ResinanceHealing]

I am so so in love with this!!!

[@ClaraLawrence]

Thank you so much.

[@s.714]

These are gorgeous. What do you use to flood the canvas first?

[@DovesWhite]

What did you put on first?

[@Dreadnaut2560]

@@DovesWhite Sorry to break the news, I'm Clara's Son. She passed away in May 2024. I'm working on steps to preserve the channel, but I can't help you with the questions :(

[@carollaporta9669]

I would love to see how you resin this, and how to make outlines darker ❤ this is amazing!

[@ClaraLawrence]

I did mess around with some markers on Tish's live. kzbin.infoxb7GLf9hHn8?feature=share

[@ArtByJulieE]

I miss you! Thank you Mikey for keeping Miss Clar Bears videos up 🙏💕

[@annlarrabee8745]

Very cool my question is do you use an adhesive on the back of your stencil to make it stay down

[@kim99may]

Omg that was amazing! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@evelynwarner517]

Thanks for sharing this. Love it so much ❤

[@ClaraLawrence]

I've been digging through my stencils to find out something else to mess with. Humm

[@wtglb]

These are sooooo pretty!

[@ClaraLawrence]

Thanks so much.

[@ArtByJulieE]

I'd love the link to those stencils if you run across 🙏🥰💕

[@ClaraLawrence]

There are 2 packets and I'm not sure which had which one in it. Here are the affiliate links for both. amzn.to/3zcTzAI and also amzn.to/42OydHh and amzn.to/3G12Ijw and amzn.to/3nv5Ait

[@GinaFry-d5n]

Totally new to ink art inspired by your art and to think I could use a stencil to help!! Awesome! did you just wait until inks completely dry before removing stencils?

[@Kathy-Carr]

Oh, my, gosh….these are beautiful! Looking forward to seeing the butterfly! 🦋 Thank you!

[@lyndawisdom2665]

Hi first time watching your video this is gorgeous Question what is the clear stuff you pour on 1st before you put the ink on

[@ClaraLawrence]

Welcome and thanks for watching. The clear stuff is 91% alcohol. It helps move the ink. The process is similar to water colors and the water helps to move watercolors.

[@RainDropps]

Beautiful. What substrate did you use? What was the dry time? Ty 😊

[@sandiguinnartescape]

These are fantastic.

[@ClaraLawrence]

Thanks so much. It was a fun surprise

[@virginiaspirito2363]

please repeat the kind of board you used.looks great

[@weisilvestri7039]

Did you mix anything in the ink? Beautiful

[@ClaraLawrence]

These were straight piñata alcohol ink. I used a variety of colors including Opal (sparkles).

[@deborahstilwell8631]

New and can’t wait

[@gerripeter484]

So sorry I missed your live question can you place the stencil down first then do the alcohol ink. Why do you put alcohol ink first?

[@ClaraLawrence]

There are different textures and effects that you get by applying items on top of your ink and then letting it evaporate on it's own. I was curious how it would behave under the stencil and it gave an old world type of look to the background. Super pretty.

[@LorraineTapper]

Beautiful!

[@kathrynmiller9469]

What is the name of the board you use?

[@michelleelle4622]

Fantastic!

[@ClaraLawrence]

Glad you like it!

[@reneeverklan8321]

the brass or copper or gold get stopped by the shaker ball when you hold the bottle upside down.

[@lindadenton3974]

What do you flood the board with?

[@desertgirl1392]

91% or 99% rubbing alcohol

[@furnitureduchess9103]

This turned out so fantastic 👏👏👏

[@ClaraLawrence]

Thanks so much. It's a fun technique and it yields gorgeous results.

[@elisabethpine3420]

Like your presentation.

[@elisabethpine3420]

Can that be done on a t shirt?

[@marivancamp1005]

So cool…could you use vinyl?

[@ClaraLawrence]

I would imagine it would have a stronger bond with the surface, but is you added it after the ink and alcohol was all over the board and didn’t press it down it should behave just like the stencil. The unknown is the adhesive and how that would behave.

[@khak3960]

Thanks

[@scottknowles6499]

Where did you get your stencil?

[@elisabethpine3420]

How long did it dry?

[@resinheavenstudiossueashwo387]

just letting you know that the butterfly had some bubbles trapped in it, one big one by the antenna.

[@ClaraLawrence]

Thanks for the good eye. I decided to let it live and see how it turned out. Curious.

[@rsruivivar]

These stencil designs are just gorgeously 🎉

[@JohnRamos-dn3qb]

All the stencils are sold out! 😢 but you must be doing a great job referring people etc. 👏

[@jonigiarratano1322]

The technique is wonderful.... but when you don't follow through with a project like the butterfly, it leaves your viewers " hanging " . Sorry, but I tuned in to see the final butterfly, and couldn't find it in your other tutorials !

[@benicio1967]

Yes. I was extremely disappointed too. Shocked we weren’t able to see the final result. There was no point in watching if you couldn’t see whether or not it worked.

[@sharonforee2401]

Hey

[@TerriMeenach]

i wanted to let you know that you should never let children or pets anywhere around you when you are using alcohol inks. The fumes are extremely toxic. I have been an alcohol ink artist for years. I always have a window open and I always wear a 3M respirator mask.

[@DebberaThompson]

Oh my gosh, let’s get started already. To much blabbering and not enough explaining why’s or what your going to do. First time and last time here
