At the Fiber Junkie's March meeting, our focus was working with alcohol inks.
I'd read about using plastic sheets/transparency products and decided to see if the inks would adhere to some Xray film. I'd unearthed more than a dozen big sheets from a past medical issue that were of no use to me now.The inks didn't work. Hey...a girl's gotta try right? I gave some to Val because I just KNEW she's come up with a brilliant way to utilize them.
.....And she did! Here's a prototype of a coaster.....a section of the film has been cut and adhered to felt. I tried it out using a hot coffee mug....results "A+". Next I'll see how it holds up to a glass filled with an icy cold beverage.
Kuddos to Val.....

So clever! I have a 'foot' x-ray from my neighbor I used for solar printing...Now I know what else I can use it for! HA
