The first technique that I did
(actually the 2nd, the first hasn't turned out right yet...) is done
with an acrylic block on watercolor paper and Distress pads.
Front of card:
Ink the edge of the pad with a color, mist with water and press down
on the paper. Clean block. Ink with next color along the edge only,
mist with water and stamp into part of the previous color, mushing
around a bit, lifting and semi drying. Continue in this way till
you've filled your paper.
I first wet my Canson 90#
WC paper, prior stamping with the block. Tilt and or lift off some
of the wetness if needed. I also stamped the same colors a 2nd time
to get more intensity and play happening.
Inside of Card:
I altered the technique a bit this time. I used a large acrylic
block, taped down my Arches 90# HP WC paper to an acrylic plate,
brushed water over the whole area, then inked up my block using the
edge of the stamp pad. I put all the colors I was using at the same
time, misted with water, and pressed down, holding it there for a
minute, then lifted the block. Repeated the technique with the same
colors for more intensity. Dried, then sprinkled some water, let it
activate and dried. |
