Hi Stampers!!
I hope all of you are
having a wonderful week!! Splitcoaststampers
has a new challenge- Mix-Ability Challenge and this week’s MIX4 is “Water Are You Doing?”- the goal is to create a project using water and allowing the color to flow. I decided to give this technique a try with the bright NAC#34 Nacho Average Challenge colors (another new challenge blog for me :-)).
Again, if you have a
chance, check out both sites for loads of inspiration!
To create this card:
Use a spray bottle to
spritz water onto the Whisper White cardstock and add a few drops of Marina
Mist Classic Ink reinker onto the wet areas. Spritz the ink with more water, lift the paper a bit to let the ink run and dry with the Heat Tool.
Ink the floral stamp
using Real Red Classic Ink and stamp repeatedly over the background. Lightly spritz
water over the images and again, lift the paper to allow the ink to run, heat with the Heat Tool to dry.
Repeat stamping the
flowers again and this time do
not spritz with the water.
Use a Stampin’ Write
Daffodil Delight Marker to color some of the petals yellow. Trim the panel to size, mount
onto Whisper White and trim close to the edge.
Stamp the sentiment using Real Red Classic Ink onto Whisper White, punch out with the Small Oval Punch, adhere to the main panel and add the 5/8” Daffodil Delight Satin
Ribbon bow.
