Haven't had a whole lot of time to work in my craft room lately, we have been fixing up our place to get it ready for the market. But here is one for today, using the rubbing alcohol/Reinker technique, and when it was dry I sprayed shimmer paint and rubbing alcohol over the top.

I totally love my Stampin Blends (alcohol markers) but I needed a way to store them, that would be easy for me to grab them when I am in the middle of a project. So I went on Amazon and found these trays that hold my Stampin Blends great. Of course Stampinup has some also, that are very nice as well, but a little more expensive, which some day I may invest in them. I needed something inexpensive for now. They sell for about $22. Obviously I need more but haven't bought more yet. I also used my label maker and labeled them, which makes it more helpful when I need a specific color for a project.
