Ink blowing at the Friday Mashup

Just a quick post for now - its late and my bed is calling.....Friday Mashup has a fun technique, that I have done before - quite a while ago  (you can see that card HERE)- its ink blowing. We actually did that when we were kids.....So of course I could not resist and had to make a card:


Its super fast to do. You need glossy paper and some ink and a thin straw. One drip of ink is plenty and the patterns are really fabulous. It takes some time to dry....


Added some black splatters. The sentiment is from STAMPlorations: Subway Art Builders: Create. Since its glossy paper you need to use Staz-on ink.
This is so much fun - go and blow some cards!

Cornelia, I love how your card turned out! I didn't do it on glossy paper like you did. That explains how you got it to spread a lot more and into smaller little streams. Very cool! Thanks for playing with us at the Friday Mashup.

Very pretty card! It also works on regular card stock, I did mine on SU Whisper White. The lines just turn out a big thicker and bolder, thats all :)

Thanks for joining us at The Friday Mashup!

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose. Well, I'll see how it goes....                           Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it.
