    Love all your technique challenge cards

    I'm here at work playing with this technique but I don't like the way it comes out using the spots (which is the only ink I have with me).. I'll keep trying

    update for ya'll cuz I know you are wondering (aren't you?)!
    I decided I don't like the ink because it's too dark when I go DTP - and I'm using the lightest colors I have (SS from Stampin Up). I'm going to stamp my big image on it anyway and see how that looks.

    stay tuned!

    I initially was going to use these small stamps *michaels $1 clear stamps very cute but I think they will not be dramatic enough with the technique. Luckily I have the SU Bon Appetit set with me and I'm using that. I know it's not *fabulous* but I'll post it anyway when I get home.

    I'm thinking about trying chalk inks only next...
    and maybe on watercolor paper...

    DH sent me to the store for a new paper trimmer and now that i have re-organized my table to hold it i have a little time to play this afternoon...

    I tried chalks and found they were too opaque for my taste, but maybe they would work with lighter colors. I really liked using distress inks for this and just tapped lightly, so it was a soft effect. I love the technique and think I'm using it to make my card swap club cards for this month.

    Awesome! I love the cats eye pads. I was trying full size chalks. This is so much better.
