Rainbow Brushstrokes
Today I wanted to share a little technique I learned in one of the online classes I took a few months ago. We were taught to use white chalk ink as a base then re-stamp image with the color of your choice. The result is a more dimensional image that I really like!
I loved how the brushstrokes turned out using a rainbow of colors. The brushstroke and sentiment is from CAS-ual Fridays stamp set Breath. I chose inspiration from the CAS-ual Fridays Challenge incorporating polka dots, kraft and punches/dies. I made that strip of polka dots simply using 2 different sized hole punches and randomly punching away!
