Dylusions Ink Spray

I'd been wanting to try Dylusions Ink Spray because of the intense colors that it produces. Only thing . . . it's expensive . . . around $7 to $8 a bottle.

This After Midnight was just under $4 on Amazon so I ordered it.  


I sprayed it on a couple pages of my art journal. 


I also sprayed my hand. 


And my shorts. 


And the floor. 


I didn't get a chance to look at the pages until a few days later. When I rubbed my fingers on the ink I found that although it had dried, it hadn't set. Powdery dark ink stained my fingers. 

Researching online, I found that I shouldn't have prepped the pages with Gesso. It prevents the ink from being absorbed into the paper. O-M-G.


And so I did the only thing that I could think of . . . I painted Mod Podge onto the two pages. 


This is what I have now.  !!!!!
