Hey everyone! So I'm the guest over at the MFT blog today - you can check out the post HERE <----click!
I filmed this card while I was making it, and wanted to share it with y'all:
I had sooooo many of you asking if it's possible to watercolour with the new Distress Oxide inks - and I did a teeny bit of that on a previous MFT card HERE, but didn't do anything more involved.
So this time I wanted to try watercoloring in an entire image with them, so I pulled out the Mermazing set from MFT, stamped it onto Bristol Smooth card stock with MFT Black Licorice Hybrid ink and watercolored it in with the Distress Oxide inks.
Because of the nature of Distress Oxide inks you're going to get different results with them when watercoloring - they have a more chalk-ink-style to them which I think it pretty cool. I LOVE them for sponging which is what I did for the entire scene. I die cut everything from Bristol Smooth card stock and the Beach Scene Builder Die-namics along with the Wonky Stitched Circle Die-namics, then used all but one of the 12 new Distress Oxide inks LOL!
The 3rd way I used the Distress Oxide inks was to stamp the coral, seaweed and fish images from the Mermazing set onto the inside of the card. I created my little underwater scene with all the images then added a sentiment from the same set and that was it!
To see how this card came together check out my video below:
