Weeellll I don't know where this card came from, definitely not my usual floral, but I was pretty much inspired by
Marcie (her card below) the guest artist at the
Muse challenge #226. I popped over to her blog to read how she'd made the background - with paint... so as I don't a supply of paint I resorted to my Brushos. I swiped the black Archival Ink pad over a white card and then using four colours I sprinkled each separately, spritzed with water, moved it a little with a brush and heat dried between each colour. Then I black inked the edge of my panel and flicked white paint about (that's the hardest part of making the background - got it everywhere). Then stuck it to a white card and finished off with a die cut sentiment, glued to aqua card and hand cut. It was fun and I have inky fingers to prove it. Thanks for taking a peek.

ReplyDeleteLove it totally, way to go. I struggled so much I went with die cuts but I love how you did this and never thought to add the colour after adding the black. Brilliant idea. Winner card.
