Welcome
A few months ago, as I was playing with my acrylic paints, I created this card:
Well today, I'm happy to say that Splitcoast Stamper has decided to feature it on their Technique Tutorial Wednesday! I wrote up the tutorial so that you all have a chance to try it out.
There are lots of wonderful samples there for you to check out as well as Dina Kowal created a video using the technique.
So here are my card details.
I began with a piece of heavy white cardstock. I squeezed out drops of paint onto my card panel, then using a Stencil Pal (or you could use a credit card); I moved the paint in a circular motion until I had the paint spread out. Be sure to let your panel dry completely before doing the next steps.
When my panel was all dry, I placed it into my Misti and stamped the thistle, then the sentiment and clear heat embossed them.
I added some black acrylic paint splatters for interest.
Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.
I hope you will give it a try.

ReplyDeleteWhat a great technique Karen, and swirling the paint in a circular motion really draws the eye in, and I love the two silhouette flowers and a lovely large sentiment too. A beautiful card. x
ReplyDeleteI love the colors you used and how they mixed, Karen. The black weed silhouettes just pop off them.
ReplyDeleteSuch an effective technique thank you for sharing it looks amazing
ReplyDeleteGreat technique and very lovely card. I am definitely going to give this a try with my VB paints! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteGreat technique Karen, I'm going to head over the split coast and check out the gallery and video.
ReplyDeleteGreat card :)
Hi Karen--I saw your tutorial today & I already made some panels! Your wonderful card truly inspired me! I always intend to try neat ideas, but it never happens the same day. Now to make them into cards!
ReplyDeleteLovely version of your great technique. I was so surprised when my Split Coast tutorial arrived and I saw this along with your name! I think the colours you choose make a big difference and this one is fab. Mine were AWFUL. Really must try again if I can find some nice, soft colours. Most of mine are 'in your face' brights at the moment!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your guest appearance :-)
