It's also your last chance to grab this super cute FREE stamp by Di's Digi Designs! For details, head to the post here. Happy Colouring everyone!
Hi everyone! I'm popping to today to share a fun little video tutorial with you all on creating simple Alcohol Ink Backgrounds! You can use this technique with any image to create some visual interest and it works great on stand-alone colouring pieces or as backgrounds for your colouring and cardmaking projects.
Materials used
- Selection of Alcohol Inks
These can be any brand and in any colour but I've used my Copic Various Ink Refills in colours B99, B91, BG01, and BV02. Try to pick a dark and light base colour (I've used a dark and light blue) with a few brighter accents as a good starting background
- Rubbing Alcohol
I've used Isocol which is 100% Isopropyl. You can use your Colourless Blender Fluid if you have this.
- Small egg cup or bowl to put the rubbing alcohol in
- White Gel or Paint pen, or a small paint brush and white paint
The image I've used here is Smells Like First Snow by The East Wind - isn't she gorgeous for your Winter/Christmas projects! :D As part of our Advent Calendar of Giveaways in our Facebook Group, today you can receive 35% off all stamps from The East Wind store using coupon code KNCADVENT2016 *Valid until December 31
________________
I can't wait to see how you go with this project... make sure to share your creations on our Facebook Group or Instagram so we can see! If you have any questions or feel stuck with any component, please don't hesitate to private message me on Facebook or email me at alyce@kitandclowder.com so we can go through this in a bit more detail.
Happy colouring! :)

Hi everyone! I have a special surprise for you all! To celebrate reaching 10,000 members in our Facebook Group, I have prepared a FREE class for everyone called Markers 101! Learn all about the basics to getting started, lightsource, colour theory, blending, and more! :)
One of the big things here at Kit and Clowder is that we talk a lot about support and confidence. We sell Online Colouring Classes that take you right through from beginners to advanced and we do one on one feedback so that we can work together to help you feel more confident. We do always include Fundamentals training in our classes, however I notice that it is a common theme for people to be so afraid to fail that they don't even open their class or don't purchase one because they are afraid to make a mistake. This is not how I want you all to approach your hobby - I want you to feel empowered to be challenged, to try new things, and to have goals in your life. I am hoping this classwill help all of you to see that you *can do this* and that it is time to put aside the fears and be brave about learning new things :) A lot of the theories in this class would be great for pencil colourists aswell.
Even though our classes are usually paid (hehe our classes are BIG and take a LONG time to put together ;) ), I wanted to do this class for free so everyone could join in so there are no excuses not to learn :) All I would ask is that if you please help to spread the word about our classes and community <3 If you see someone that is new online, point them to the class, or take two minutes to pop up a blog post, or a facebook post. Anything like this would mean so much and enable us to keep growing and learning together :)
To claim your free class follow these steps:
- Please make sure you are a member here of the Kit and Clowder group if you are seeing this elsewhere :)
1 - go to our Online Class website www.kitandclowder.com
2 - click on Class Rooms
