This week, Dawn McVey has a video how to showing us a new-to-me technique. I've seen it before, but never tried it myself, so this challenge is the perfect opportunity, right? I liked the way Dawn started all of the paint blowing from one side of the panel, then covered it up with layers and her sentiment, so I kinda copied her layout.
My Card ~
I used Glimmer Mist because I only have one re-inker and I thought this technique really lends itself to more than one color being blown around on the cardstock :)
Cardstock: Card base and panel are Stamper's Select White by PTI; the Aqua, Green Apple and Teal are from Michael's
Tools/Dies: Beautiful Butterflies from PTI; Scalloped and Smaller Circle punches from Marvy; Birds & Swirls embossing folder by Cuttlebug
Glimmer Inks: Granite from Tattered Angels : Green and Teal from Ditto
Embellishments: bling from Studio G; the flower is a 3-D sticker from Special Moments ~ can you see a sequin on the leaf?
Helen, so pretty. This was a new technique for me too and so out of my style of card making.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful results,Helen. Great center flower, and yes, can see the sweet sequin.
