It's the first Tuesday of the month, which means a new technique challenge at...
This month is my turn to host the challenge - the Technique I chose is called...
SMACKIN' ACETATE
Make sure to check out the TUTORIAL video on the blog,
as well as the wonderful creations by the rest of the Design Team
Here's my card...
Ink colors used are Dutch Blue, Watermelon, Hydrangea from Close to My Heart
All papers are from my stash of scraps
Stamps: from my old collection of Close to My Heart - Treasured Life D1306
I experimented with using glossy cardstock, which gave me more movement with the water/ink
This resulted in more coverage on the paper and a great blended look once the paper was dry
I think this technique is really fun and can give you a varied look with the type of paper you use
And here is a second card I made...
Ink colors used are Sunny Yellow, Sunflower, Orange from Close to My Heart
All papers are from my stash of scraps
Stamps: from my old collection of Close to My Heart - Beware D1381
Now it's your turn to play around with the SMACKIN' ACETATE technique
REMEMBER to watch the TUTORIAL and check out the INSPIRATION from the Design Team
Don't be afraid to try different color combinations and types of paper
Have FUN with it - I look forward to seeing what you come up with
Thanks for stopping by today...
