Thanks with Brushos and Cling Wrap
It's been a while since I posted a card using the crinkled cling wrap on glossy paper with Brushos technique. I needed a thank you note and remembered I had not blogged this one yet. I started with a top folding kraft card. I crinkled cling wrap on a glossy piece with green Brushos spritzed with water. After waiting just a short time, this wonderful background was the result. I die cut Penny Black's fern twice (cream and dark green) and layered them slightly offset, Then I die cut and attached "thanks" from My Creative Time.
I am entering this card in the Thanks/Thanksgiving challenge at Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge and the Anything Goes challenges at Papertake Weekly and Scrapy Land. (used Penny Black die.)
What a great technique. Love the green background with the ferns. Beautiful card. Thank you for sharing your beautiful card with us at Scrapy Land Challenge #29 and can't wait to see your next card with us again. Nancy Hill, Guest Designer

ReplyDeleteI love the beautiful background that you created on your card! That fern die is gorgeous. Thanks for playing along with us at Scrapy Land Challenge #29!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty and love the green colors on it.
ReplyDeletebeautiful card!! do you have a tutorial for the background and can you do it with ink refills?
ReplyDeleteSherry- I am going to reply here because when I hit reply on your comment it is going nowhere.. so I hope you check back or can see this. I learned how to do this from the brilliant Eileen who has a video tutorial here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IoDfsnzKys8
ReplyDeleteYou could try it with ink refills or alcohol inks on glossy paper or not. I have not tried that because I love my Brushos/Bisters/Color Burst which you can tell from how many cards I post with them:)
Hi Karen, a gorgeous card with a beautiful background with the crinkled clingfilm and brushos. Your dies are fabulous!!
