I enjoyed some experimenting with alcohol inks on Yupo paper. Because the Yupo paper is polypropylene, the ink does not absorb but runs across the surface. A bit of rubbing alcohol adds to the blending and random play of the colors.
Now that I have these wonderful treasures of color, what next??
Could I cut shapes out of the paper and attach it to a fiber piece? Would it be possible to sew through the paper without it ripping or shredding?
On we go.....

I cut out silhouettes of birds.
I found some mitered border end scraps from a previous project. By stitching these together, I had a small background.
(I love it when I can find a use for scraps.)
The birds were stitched in place (successfully).
