Do you think I could use them on my copper electroforming? The ability to paint the copper on my beads would just be mind boggling!Vickie Hallmarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13633814450520474638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13907443.post-48743292510171608402009-03-23T05:23:00.000-05:002009-03-23T05:23:00.000-05:00These are just beautiful.

The ink can be reworked or removed if you wet it with the blending solution, so you never have to stress out about not doing a good job or liking the way it is coming out.<BR/><BR/>The edges are not really sharp. But I have thought about mounting the metal to painted Grungeboard to give it more stability. The first two books will be metal and canvas alone, since I have already done most of the insides of the books. <BR/><BR/>If I get around to doing another book I will add the metal to another surface, but I will need to adjust the size of my canvas pages to accommodate the added bulk. I keep getting other ideas I want to try with this, too many ideas, too little time.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06858569382699600146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13907443.post-72062842404373741452009-03-22T20:04:00.000-05:002009-03-22T20:04:00.000-05:00Thanks Stacy!
