Hey friends! Today I will be sharing a few unique stamping techniques using Alcohol Lift Ink. This ink is a complete gamechanger for alcohol inks and creates awesome stamped effects that you can’t achieve with a regular ink pad.

The first technique gives you two cards from one alcohol ink background. I started by stamping a floral background stamp onto an alcohol ink background using Alcohol Lift Ink. I used the ink that was lifted on the stamp to create another stamped background. This gives such awesome results that are so unique and colorful and cannot be achieved with a regular ink pad.
I used the ink from the center of the stamp to create a reverse stamped image onto a hello die cut. After wiping the excess lifted ink off the alcohol ink background I lined up the die cut and adhered it onto the card. I kept it simple and finished off the card with some Nuvo Glaze on the sentiment.
For the last example, I used the Glorious Bouquet stamp to lift ink off of an alcohol ink background and transfer it to a piece of paper. The inked background acts like a palette and you are able to lift off color many times to stamp onto a new surface. The results are unique and beautiful!
In this post, I really focused on the Alcohol Lift Ink. HERE is a video that I shared a variety of different ways to create stunning backgrounds using Alcohol Inks!

I am the most impressed with the alcohol lifting card that had the black stamped words including, “Wonder”. It is different each time! I do not own a stamp with a large cluster of flowers, but I will work something else out to find an image that will look good when the lifted ink is transferred.
I also like the first example because of the simplicity and dark background.
What a fabulous video, packed with instruction, info and inspiration. I’ve been thinking about getting one of these ink pads, but wanted to see more about them. So glad you posted this. I will definitely be picking one up asap. Thanks for another great video.
Wow! Simon,great video.The floral was my most favorite.
Awesome video, I especially love the Wonder card restamped on white!
After watching your video I’m definitely going to get that ink pad. Love the colors you used.
