Look out Atlanta here I come. In 5 and a half weeks I will be flying my way to (another new destination for me) Atlanta, Georgia! I will be teaching the Copic Standard and Intermediate Certification as well as the brand new Copic Flower class. All three classes have been open for registration a couple weeks now and are filling fast so if you would like to come play get signed up today!
In the mean time here is a little inky fun for today! I created a VERY SIMPLE background for a little Valentines card for my Doodlebug. I used my Copic Various Ink and created the background on a shiny photo paper. I also used a straw for this particular technique, mine happens to be a milkshake straw so don’t let the size throw you of 🙂
Step #1 – I dripped 3 dots of one of my colors onto my paper.
Step #2 – I blew through the straw quickly splattering the ink.
Step #3 – I repeated the process with 2 more colors.
Like anything else you might have to play a little with colors that work well together!
Step#4 – Patiently wait for the ink to dry (ha ha) and attach your new paper onto your card!
I used Various inks in BG00, YG01, B02 for the background, the stamp is by Taylored Expressions and the Copic colors used are FYG1, YG01, FRV1, RV04, BG000, Boo. I also use my Kirarina Wink to create the doodled outline on the card. It worked great over the ink and on the slick surface!
Hope you have a Happy Colorful Week!
