Blended Distress Spritz/Flick, Brushless Watercolour & Wrinkle-free Distress Techniques
Well I finally got off the starting blocks! Over the Easter break I found my inks and stamps in the packing boxes and got inky! My favourite for the Day 2 techniques is Tag 2, the Brushless Watercolour Technique. The first and third tags required some practice and repeats. I am quite pleased with the end results, however I’m sure some more practice is required to master these techniques. What I learnt :- 1.To achieve the best results you need the right products (I don’t have any Manila tags as yet, so I had to make do with cutting up a manila folder. The quality and weight of this paper seems to have an effect on the end result). 2. For the third tag, I didn’t have a mini mister so my first attempt had ugly blobs of water instead of flicks. 3. As Tim said, using Mustard Seed and Wild Honey Distress Inks to finish, really does give the tags some warmth.
