I began by inking up an acrylic block with distress inks which I then spritzed with water containing perfect pearls before placing it on to some water colour card. After the panel was dry I added the sentiment and flowers. The panel is adhered to the card base with some fun foam to add dimension.
I used:
Distress Inks - Squeezed lemonade, Mustard seed, Spiced marmalade and Carved Pumpkin
Stampers Anonymous Tim Holtz Mini Bouquet

ReplyDeleteI need to try this technique again. Your ombre panel looks beautiful against the black silhouette.

Well, what a cool technique, Elaine! I've done my share of smooching random colors onto my acrylic block, but I have never thought to try the process by controlling the inks the way you have done here with your exquisite ombre sunset! THANK YOU!! I'm pinning this! Hugs, Darnell
