Blood Splat Specimen Slides - craft along

Join Que for a craft along video making gruesome blood splat slides for junk journals. Using alcohol inks and some scrap acetate to create gooey gory specimen slides that make the perfect addition to darker, crime and horror themed junk journals.

These look great! Love the tip about opening up the acetate after putting it together - must try!

@@JacqsScraps thank YOU for the fabulous idea! These are so much my style - no frou-frou flowers in my journals 😂

These are cool! I don’t have that die cut machine but they would be easy to cut out. Maybe a dried flower or fern would look good inside. Will you put the specimen slides in a nature journal? 🙂

[@penelandque]

Thanks, the ferns are a good idea. I'm not sure what I will use these ones in yet...possibly a more science/anatomy themed journal as that's what I enjoy making 🙂

I like what you did, but how did you make your frame?

[@penelandque]

Thanks! The slide frame was cut using a die (Tim Holtz Sizzix Specimen Thinlits 3665930). You could also make your own with card stock and cut out with a blade and ruler, or even use an old slide if you have any.
