I have used acrylic inks before on photo paper and had forgotten just how vibrant these fluid inks can be on the shiny side of the photo paper. The contrast between the beautiful magenta one at the top and the next one with the black bird die-cuts shows you can also create a more subtle background. The one with the black birds is Winsor & Newton Silver Acrylic Ink and Liquitex Burnt Sienna, a gorgeous combination and silver in real life is stunning!
Down the bottom of this post is an image of the backgrounds I made using my Distress Re-inkers. These work just as well but take a bit more time to dry. No heat gun was used to dry any of these as the photo paper will blister so you just need some patience and let them sit while you create more gorgeous backgrounds. Black Stazon is your best stamping ink if you want to stamp. Rub-ons also work perfectly on these backgrounds. I used rub-ons on both of the samples with the magenta.
"State of mind"
"Scenic route"
"Fearless"
"Field notes"
"Make today count"
"Keep moving forward"
but they were created with Distress Re-inkers instead of Acrylic
Inks. They took longer to dry but they still are very cool backgrounds.
