This is way out of the box for me! I used Shimmery white card stock and slightly spritzed it with water. I used reinkers and Aqua Painters to add the color to the card stock. When I needed the color to flow more I would add a small spritz of water. I added some simple butterflies and a sentiment.
I hope you enjoy this and try something "outside your box" today! :)

WOW! I found this card via Tiffany's blog (posted just above here) and I HAD to see how you made this. it's absolutely stunning.
ReplyDeleteI will be giving this a try myself.
OH MY! That is STUNNING! So So impressed! Can't wait to try it!
ReplyDeleteHi Aimee! I just love this card! I have been trying in vain to make one myself, but mine just looks like a big glob of smeared paint. Can you tell me how you got yours so mottled looking and cool, please? I've tried pouncing, smearing, etc...to no avail. Can you tell me if you put a dot of reinker on your actual project, or did you put it on a plastic lid, then dip your aqua painter in? Sorry for all of the questions, but I'd love to case this for club and I need to get this stuff done asap. I will of course give you credit and a link. Thank you so much for your time and patience. You can get ahold of me at chandapie(at)cox(dot)net Thanks again! Awesome card!

ReplyDeleteI saw this card in the Stampin' Success magazine and just fell in love with it. I made one and posted it and had so many wonderful comments and requests for a how to, that I did a tutorial that will post this weekend. I have credited you with the inspiration. I should have done that on the last one. I hope better late than never is ok! Thanks so much.
