We're back with Day 4 of our wonderful collaboration with the folks at Imagine Crafts!
This terrific company has been so good as to supply us with some amazing inks. They generously support all of our events, so we are super excited for this opportunity to really showcase their Radiant Neon inks this week! The Radiant Neons are bright, vibrant and so much fun to play with!
I've played around in the past with pressing pigment ink on an acrylic stamp mount, spritzing with water and pressing it down onto paper to leave a watercolor effect. I was excited to try it on a larger scale with the Creative Palette with the Radiant Neons.
For the card, I used only 4 colors, Electric Blue, Electric Purple, Electric Green and Delicata Silvery Shimmer but on the photo above, I played around with all the Radiant Neon colors. After pressing ink on the palette, spritz really well with water and tilt the palette a bit to blend the colors together. Place paper onto the palette and rub. Peel back and admire :)
Pretty, but it needed a bit more so I used a Clear Scrap Quarterfoil Mascil to ink in some more Radiant Neon color. You can really see the silver from the Delicata ink in this sample. Love that shimmer!
All that was left to do was stamp my image and adhere to my card front.
Supplies Used:
Stampendous Butterfly Tune Cling, Creative Palette
Imagine Crafts- Radiant Neon (Electric Blue, Electric Purple, Electric Green), Memento Ink
Clear Scraps Mascil (Quarterfoil)
We've got some Radiant Neon inks to give away with our wonderful Fran•táge Color Fragments! We'll give three prize packages (we choose the colors) randomly drawn from the comments on all the blog posts this week.
