Hello, and happy Sunday!
I have this card on the Technique Junkies blog today. I thought I would share it here with full directions on how I made it.
I used the SD708 Something Different stamp. Here's how I made my card today.
- In my Misti, I stamped the Something Different image, using Caran D'Ache Neocolor II Aquarelle water crayons. I used the red and yellow to add color to the stamp, then stamped it onto bristol vellum card stock.
- Keeping the card panel in the Misti, I added lots and LOTS of pigment from the Neocolor crayons. I placed the crayons up against the image, then added water so that it would drip down. I had my Misti propped up on my desk at an angle, so that the drips would run down the paper.
- I repeated, adding yellows, oranges, and reds/pinks until I was happy with the look.
- I used my heat tool to completely dry the panel. When dry, I inked the image (still in the Misti) with VersaFine Clair Nocturne ink. I stamped it three or four times, to get a full, dark impression, as the paper was warped and textured a bit, and had lots of color on it.
- Some ink spatters finish off the card.
And that's it! Pretty easy, really. And, oh so FUN! I love playing with messy mediums and seeing how far I can stretch my comfort zone!
I am adding my card to the DTGD Challenge (Bev's/Texas Grammy) at Splitcoaststamper.
