Just Us Girls #410 - Trend Week


I think this is one of my most favorite ways of water coloring.  It's so easy!

I simply inked up an acrylic block, spritzed it with water, and stamped the paper.  This is the first time I used oxide inks, and I do love the outcome.  My Thank You is from Concord & 9th.  It is a nice large stamp, perfect for a quick card.  On a side note, it looks like it is being retired - so get it while you can...
Your turn!  Come on over to the JUGS Challenge and play along!  I can't wait to see the gallery.


Thanks for stopping by~

I haven't done one like this in quite a while and you have motivated me with this technique. Thank, Vicki.

So easy and yet I've never done it! The results are great. I just bought myself two distress oxide pads and I'm wondering about them. I like how they blend - they are a lot smoother, and react really well with water I agree. Love the bold colours. Xx

I love your blocks of color! The Oxide inks worked great with the overlapping rectangles. I have that thank you stamp, too and love it!
