While we have our soldering irons out (or wood burning tools), this is another way to utilise this particular tool with alcohol inked backgrounds on Yupo. Unfortunately, you can't see the depth in these through a computer monitor or phone. They are very 3-dimensional, similar to the last class where we layered the pieces of holey Yupo using little pieces of dimensional foam tape. This time I have used larger sheets of craft foam to layer the top pieces to create depth. So you have the background, then a piece raised on 1 piece of craft foam, then a front layer also raised on another piece of craft foam. It looks wonderful in the flesh! Not as fiddly as the last class but still takes a little more time than just doing a normal alcohol ink background. Because these are so spectacular in themselves, they really don't need a lot of embellishments, hence the use of a clear sticky word on each of them. Apart from the second one, "earth", which has some Jac paper (double-sided adhesive) cloud shapes applied and then brushed with Perfect Pearls.
