This week Angie has shared this tutorial that Dina did for using powdered watercolors such as brusho's seen here at Splitcoaststampers. there is also a video you can see on the site or YouTube linked up on it.
So, in the past I have A made mud with these and B made the pigments travel through the air to every thing on my table. and that is not my thing, I can deal with inky fingers but, finding stray pigments waiting to be activated on everything irritates me, you tend to find them in the worst places. that being said I decided to put some Strathmore 400 series wc paper into my spray box on the floor. I did do all the sheets this way. this is the first two colors on the first sheet. and then I added a third because this was not all that interesting looking to me.
this is what that one looked like with three colors, and then I decided I had already started with the mess might as well do some more I had started with a 12" square sheet of WC paper so, each of these squares is 6" X 6" in real life.
These are sheets 3&4 evidently I didn't shoot the second sheet. and these I found out that one of my powders was really a liquid and it decided to drip every where and through my box so, after this was shot I spent a bunch of time cleaning carpet. ( this is the only room we have with carpet our house has hardwood floors and tile so, the one place where I could make a mess, I tend to not to, I'd rather play than clean)
a glimpse at the table at the moment, these are still struggling to dry. we are supposed to warm up here starting tomorrow but, it was snowing yesterday so. this is as far as I got with them. If you'd like to play along with us you can find this challenge here at SCS. Thanks for stopping by.
