  3. Hi Suz,
    I am so pleased you liked it :). I've never used Sticky Fingers but I would think any kind of spray ink would work. I chose spray ink because it's nice and wet with a strong pigmentation - there is nothing special about Glimmer Mist in the context of the tutorial.

    You could use re-inkers mixed with water in a spray bottle - that would certainly do the trick. HTHs and thanks for your kind comments :).

  5. Katy, I love this technique, and your tutorial is fabulous! I'll never again throw my foil into the recycle bin, knowing it can end up looking this beautiful! Thanks for the inspiration!

    Hugs,
