Playing With Alcohol Inks

I've not played with my alcohol inks for at least two years so I decided to blow the dust of my bottles and play with them. I've spent some time this week watching Alcohol Ink videos on You Tube to see if there's a different technique than using felt to apply the ink. I found a few videos where canned air was used to blow the ink around the card before the ink dried, I haven't got any canned air so I used my Tim Holtz spritzer. I must say I was pleased with the results.

The first two show my attempts at doing poppies - need more practice, I put a few scribbles on with a fine tip pen. I'm not sure yet what I'm going to do with the rest of them apart from the pink one.
