Quick & Easy Alcohol Markers on Yupo | Terrific Tags with Michelle

Hey there, crafty friends! Have you tried using Alcohol Markers on Yupo? Michelle Short here, dropping by to inspire you with a card making video tutorial on how to quickly and easily create a fun, bright background using Artist Alcohol markers on Yupo paper.
I started off by applying Artist Alcohol Markers on to Yupo using the brush tip. This creates a fun, steaky kind of look and a fast way to add color to a larger area. It was die cut using the Terrific Tags Dies and the Mega Number 8 Die. This is a fun way to add personalization to a birthday tag! It was finished off with a sentiment and sparkly stars.
I would love to hear your thoughts on my project so make sure to leave a comment below! Do you want to see a complete supplies list and step-by-step written instructions, as well? More details on this project can be found in my blog post: blog.altenew.com/?p=62024

Very pretty. Fun idea for kids and grown-ups!

[@cheri6905]

LOVE this tag- so happy & pretty! Any child would love it - any adult, too!!

[@cindylovelace9426]

I just love your tags Michelle.

[@LisaTilsonMyCardTrip]

It's so bright and happy! I love this technique as I love the look of the tiny almost bubble like effect you get when overlapping the colours. Your tag is gorgeous Michelle!

[@TheAjjupiter]

Great tag, Michelle. I haven't tried using alcohol markers on Yupo. Another technique to try.

[@susanbaker6409]

Fabulous, fun idea for a tag. Have not yet used alcohol markers on Yupo paper. x

[@theresehudran7635]

LOVE< LOVE the colors

[@joannesummers08]

Wow what a good idea 💡 👏 😍

[@Altenew]

Thank you! Glad to know you like it, Jo! 😊Hope you can give this project a try sometime! 🤗

[@cathygarner6867]

Great tag idea

[@yvonnetomenga5726]

@Altenew • I surprised myself. I didn't really care for the striated look on the full background, but I liked it once cut down to a tag. The overall tag was great with its dimension but I lean toward ribbon in place of twine. Thanks for showing how to get the colors when they don't blend well. 👍

[@MichelleShortTheCardGrotto]

I completely agree with you. It’s a bit much in a bigger format but I liked it once cut in to a tag. I have leaned towards twine for a long time now but I do have ribbon, so I’ll try that again soon. Thank you for the suggestion and thank you for watching!

[@christinepease890]

never heard of Yupo paper had to google it :) but lovely tag

[@MichelleShortTheCardGrotto]

Sorry, I didn’t explain it in the video. I completely forgot. It’s a synergic paper that works well with alcohol ink. It sits on the paper, rather than being absorbed so that the ink can move about. Thank you so much for watching :)
