Welcome to the technique blog hop. We are talking about geometrical shapes and implementing them onto our projects with purpose.
If you arrived here from Darlys Recker's blog, you are in the right spot.
My technique was very simple, inks and daubers.
I am a super busy mom, and wanted to show easy this style can be adapted without the need of a paper trimmer, die cutting machine, stamps or even blocks.
I started by lightly inking up my blending tool. Using a light hand, I twisted the ink on my white daisy cardstock. I choose 5 colors and repeated this process for each color.
Next, I took a finger dauber and inked it up well, and applied a good amount of pressure to make a smaller circle inside the larger circle of corresponding color.
You can see a nice close up of that here.
I added a thin cut sentiment (sending hugs left over from a previous project) which was cut 3 times from black cardstock and layered.
I also wondered what this would look like if the distress oxide inks were activated, with water? A much softer look and feel. Same technique to apply the ink and with a little manipulation from water, a completely different look and feel.
I added a sticker from the smitten collection with 3D foam tape, drew a doodle border and stamped tiny hearts along the way.
I love both cards for different reasons.
Now head on over to Tamara Sandwisch blog to see her interpretation of let's get geometrical. Before you go, I'd love to hear what you think about my technique/cards in the comments.
Thanks for stopping by!
Danielle.
