We are Neet and Wendy and we would like to welcome you to our fortnightly challenge, ‘Artful Times’, where we are offering a variety of challenges to inspire you to create in whichever style or medium of crafting you enjoy. You never know, we might even inspire you to create something out of your comfort zone and try out something new.

Yes like all challenge sites we have rules and guidelines. We hope you will read and follow them, we have Oyster Stamps as our sponsor, and of course, a winner and runner up will be chosen each month. We may also have the occasional guest designer.

Challenge 25 is ... Alcohol Inking

Think I have been having a bit of a technique moment here.  A month ago when it was my choice I chose "colour technique" and now here I am asking you to use your alcohol inks.  Another technique based challenge.

I think we all know how to use them and we probably use them on different "slick" surfaces at various times.  I know I have lots of tins that I have used the inks for as it adds more interest to a plain silver or white tin.

Then there are the various bottles I have coloured in too.  And that is without thinking about the drawer full of glossy card that I love using to make atc's out of, or toppers for celebration cards.  Wonder what you will make?

Here are two things that we made.  The first is from

and here is mine (Neet)


Please please please can I ask that you stick to the rules so that you can be in line to win a prize.  When Sam was a member of our team she went to a great deal of trouble to make sure that we covered everything we wanted and there are rules you can just click onto at the top of the page.  Don't let all her hard work go to waste.
