Here's another card from playing with the
Distress Oxide Inks (DOX)
I smooshed some ink on my craft sheet using 3 colors but not touching.
Then I spritzed with water and smooshed some cardstock into the wet ink.
I dried the piece with my heat gun, lightly spritzing more
water as it dried.
My friend Jan loves purple so I made into a birthday card for her.
The panel is 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" so it's an oversized card (5" x 7")
She shared her butterfly die with me a while back.
It worked perfectly for her card!

Superbly created background, just love all those beautiful colours. Shows off that delicate butterfly die cut brilliantly. Thanks for playing at AAA Cards.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful butterfly card and DOX b'grd....those 3 colors so good together plus soft look you got. I played for a couple of hours last night making DOX panels...definitely takes play and practice(!) but is fun. Happy Mother's Day. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteI always love the surprises you get when you smoosh with DOX. This one is lovely, Bonnie.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! Love the pop of the black butterfly against those fun colors. So pretty.

Soft and so pretty card...with a surprise! At first glance thought it was a version of second generation stamping but turned out to be some Bonnie creativity. The coloring at the bottom literally "grounds" it. I am in awe of the small splatters -- much better look than my messy blobs (smiles).
