Layers of ink
I often look for interesting old bottles to alter. This bottle is about 4.5 in tall and had an interesting shape and closure mechanism. I was inspired by sending messages out to sea in bottles, which always fascinated me. There is a message inside this bottle and the bottle has clearly been in the sea for a long time since sand, shells and pearls are clinging to it.
Color the bottle with alcohol ink until you are happy with the look. Ink a piece of heavystock paper and stamp with a ledger stamp. Stamp sentiments on the paper and roll up. Place inside the bottle.
Mix a little brown paint into grit-paste to create sand. Press tiny shells and pearls into the paste and add mica flakes.
Embellish with labels and idea-ology pieces.
Thank you so much for looking!
Happy stamping!
