My lovely Hubby bought me a small screen printing kit for Christmas, it’s A5 in size and I’m hoping to make some stencils using my cutting dies/punchs and use them to do backgrounds for my card designs. The kit included 3 small tubes of ink, 2 ‘normal’ and 1 opaque my first experiment using normal ink went OK but my 2nd using the gold opaque ink went not exactly wrong but I was left with a ‘bubbled’ effect around the edge of my butterfly stencil (it was one I made myself using coated card) was it the ink or the card I used or my technique. Also these tubes of ink are not going to last forever but all the suppliers I’ve found seem to sell only large quantities, I have some tubes of watercolour and gouache that I bought a while ago, would these be suitable? (I was thinking of trying but don’t want to ruin the screen)
Thanks in advance
