After you have finished tin tooling
it is time to add color. I used alcohol
inks to color this project using a variety of colors depending on the color
variations that I wanted on the piece.
Experiment with a variety of brands and colors to find something that
works for you. Adirondack Blending Solution
is an interesting product to use to achieve creative results in addition to
your alcohol inks. I dropped the
Blending Solution onto my colored petals and it dispersed the color to add an
interesting effect. Use shades of red,
orange, and yellow for the flower petals and shades of green for the
leaves. If you prefer you can always
color the petals with colored permanent markers, I have found that over time
the permanent markers may eventually fade depending on the amount of sunlight
they are exposed to. Colored tin is
another option.
