I enjoy doing SCS challenges but haven't try one recently, so I decided to do the Ways to Use It Challenge today. The challenge was to Get Inky by using reinkers. There are quite a few techniques for using reinkers in the Resources forum on SCS. I decided to try the Rolling Marble Background because it reminded me of rolling marbles in paint and then on paper which I used to do with my preschool classes. Basically it's the same thing except you use reinkers instead of paint. I changed the technique a little because I didn't have any marbles. I raided my hubby's golf bag and used golf balls instead! So here's my fun background for a fun-gal!
I love this punny stamp and sentiment. They're Hambo Stamp's 2902 Mushrooms and 2909 Real Fun-gal. There's also a sentiment for Real Fungi. I also used the spotlighting technique for the first time. I think it worked well and added just the pop of color needed for this fun-gal!
OMG, that is so cute! How creative, you been hanging with Gloria too much! Love it!
ReplyDeleteSo cute, the spot light coloring is awesome.
ReplyDeleteI love the spotlighting technique that you did. It really makes the image of the mushroom stand out more than coloring the entire stamp would have. I am going to have to give it a try myself sometime. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeletePaula, this is great. I have always wanted to do this but never think of it. It is perfect for this image. You have done a great job on this challenge.
ReplyDeleteI've never tried that technique. You rocked it! Great card!
