This was a bit of fun to do!
I used an air blower to splat out the paint -I thought these would be easy to use but I actually found it quite tricky.
It's definitely one to practice as the paint does splatter everywhere.
After a couple of failed attempts I managed to produce something I was happy with!
Been told that this technique is better/easier with Distress Re-inkers but I didn't have the colours I wanted so improvised by simply using watercolours.
Using watercolour paints I think some of the shades turned out not as vibrant as they should have been!
The sentiment is from Bee Crafty.
Hope to see your rainbow creation in our Linky this fortnight and please go visit the rest of the DT and our wonderful Guest Designer! x
This is so brilliant in every way Viv. I really want to give this try and as I came a cross an old air blower while doing my big tidy I don't have to go searching for one! These colours really did go a long way! Great quote too.! Hugs, Chrisx
ReplyDeleteA fantastic card Viv, love the vibrant colours you've used and the sentiment is just right.

Wow! that's certainly a vibrant and striking rainbow.
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a painting that could sell for thousands of dollars at an art show! Get it framed and ready to go. That sentiment is perfect for these bright colors. Fun idea to use paints.
ReplyDeleteCOOL! Love this colourful card xxx
ReplyDeleteI am glad you persevered with this as I love the result and what a perfect sentiment for your splashy rainbow. So bright and cheerful. Hope you are managing to avoid that very chilly north easterly wind in Norfolk. I was convinced they told us that we would have a fine week this week :( I need bright colours to cheer me up, so thank you xx
ReplyDeleteLOVE that background of rainbow colours Viv! Very cool! And that sentiment... so true! Have a great week! ((HUGS)) Helen

Viv this is fabulous, its a great technique so effective, I think the paint medium you used works perfect with the dark stamped sentiment as it blends into the background beautifully. Amazing creation.
