The challenge is sponsored by :
Let's take a look at my card now.
As you all know, I have been on an "Ink Smooshing" frenzy recently, I have used the same technique for this card too. See my previous cards here and here showing the same technique.
Instructions:
- So I started it with watercolor card panel & Dr. Ph. Martin's Hydrus watercolors.
- Using acetate sheet, Distress water sprayer, I created ink puddles and then placed them on the watercolor panel only on the left bottom corner.
- Taking the acetate sheet to the paper give you a bit of control as to where you want to place your color. I did not want to color the whole panel.
- After I had the ink pattern created to my satisfaction, I die cut the Poppy from white card-stock and adhered it to the panel on the colored background.
- Finally I stamped the sentiment and embellished using some Dew drops.
