@shabby.soul has a fun and easy technique for you to try to experience the magic of @tim_holtz Alcohol Inks on Dura-Lar!
Supplies:
Tim Holtz Alcohol Ink:
-Ink: Espresso, Lettuce, Monsoon, Moss
-Dura-Lar Clear
Tim Holtz Distress:
-White Heavystock
-Embossing Ink
Tim Holtz By Stampers Anonymous:
-Cling Mounted Stamps: Nature’s Discovery
- Tim Holtz Acrylic Grid Blocks
Tim Holtz idea-ology Tiny Clip, Cello Tape
Ranger Embossing Powder: Superfine Black
Tim Holtz Tonic Studios:
-Glass Media Mat White
-Tiny Attacher (optional)
Other:
- Isopropyl Alcohol 91%
Instructions:
- Cut two tags, one from Dura-Lar and one from Heavystock (Dura-Lar die cuts beautifully)
- Sprinkle Alcohol Inks onto your Glass Media Mat.
- Swipe the Dura-Lar tag through the inks. Repeat until you’re happy with the result. If the Alcohol Ink dries before you’re finished, spray with Isopropyl Alcohol.
- Using Distress Embossing Ink, stamp images from Nature’s Discovery stamp set onto the Heavystock tag.
- Sprinkle Embossing Powder over the images, remove excess. Heat powder until melted.
- Adhere your tags together. I used Cello Tape and a Tiny Clip. But you could use the Tiny Attacher or sew them together.

![How to Use Distress Embossing Glaze | 3 Mixed Media Techniques
Join @JulianaMichaels from 17turtles.com as she explores three different techniques using Tim Holtz Distress Embossing Glaze! This translucent embossing glaze works like a traditional embossing powder but allows color and detail to show through, making it a versatile and beautiful addition to any mixed media project. In this tutorial, Juliana demonstrates how to use the glaze with an embossing folder, with stamped images, and combined with Distress Translucent Crackle Paste through a stencil — each technique producing stunning vintage results with Distress Spray Stains and Distress Paint.
