Just wanted to show you an attempt at sponging ink. I was NOT happy with the end result but thought I would share with you to show you how NOT to do it!!!
Never mind, I will try again!
Thank you for stopping by and please don't be put off after seeing this!!
Take care

Well I'm I can't understand why you're not happy with it Jan. It looks fine to me and I enlarged it to take a closer look! Ye, there's some mottling, but it looks like an overall design element so don't be so hard on yourself.
ReplyDeleteI read somewhere the other day that if you get harsher lines (or patches you don't like), go over them with a lighter colour to blend them more. Just trying to help!

Thank you for your comments Sarn and I will what you have suggested.
DeleteLove it Jan, you are way too critical, it's a design feature! I'm experimenting and finding a gentle buffing action with a light colour ink on a sponge, to gradually build up colour, gives a more even finish, but I like this look too. There is no 'wrong' in craft! xxx
ReplyDeleteI agree with Lesley, you are too self critical. I think it's fantastic and so deliciously dimensional, and the colours are scrumptious as well. X
ReplyDeleteI like this card! Sponging ink is beautiful as all colors, flowers and layout!
