I'm laughing because there was nothing clean about the process but it was sure fun. I tried the monoprint technique with a stencil, distress inks, and water. I tapped the stencil with three different distress colors, spritzed it with water, and then laid it down on a piece of watercolor paper. I then dabbed off the excess with a towel and I really kind of like how it turned out! I'm definitely going to play with other colors.
Thanks so much for stopping by! Here's the stuff I used:
Paper: Neenah Solar White CS, Ranger Watercolor Paper
Inks: Distress (mowed lawn, peacock feathers, salty ocean), VersaFine Onyx Black
Stencil: Dylusions
Stamp: Graphic45
Other: Heidi Grace Epoxy Dots
What a cool card! Love the colors!! Thank you for playing along with the Paper Players this week.
ReplyDeleteThis is a very clever card! I love the watercolour stencil background technique - I suspect it was very messy, but it does make for a great background. Thanks for joining us at The Paper Players this week!
ReplyDeleteHaha! I laughed at your comment about the process of creating your card being anything but clean. I always say part of being creative is being messy. I love the end result. That background is gorgeous! Thank you so much for joining us this week at The Paper Players! :)
