With the Ranger Tim Holtz alcohol inks, you can easily create beautiful backgrounds with a polished, marble effect. Alcohol ink is a quick-drying pigment ink in a bright, slightly transparent colour. You will get the best results on glossy paper, such as yupo paper, or other smooth surfaces like metal, plastic, foil and glass. Drip the ink directly from the bottle onto the surface or use an alcohol ink blending tool. By applying several layers of alcohol ink and mixing colours, you can create a beautiful result. Use a special solvent to allow colours to flow nicely into each other. Combine the alcohol ink with a bit of Ranger's Blending Solution to mix colours, lighten them or even remove them. Besides the non-opaque colours you can also choose to add opaque Mixatives or Alloys in a beautiful metallic colour.
