MIX4 I Can't Believe My Eye!

Photo Details

Poster: Jeanne S

I created a background by wetting my watercolor paper and then spraying with Colorbox Sprays! (Sky, Grape, Blueberry). I let the background dry and then sprayed an acetate sheet with more ink and dabbed the paper into the ink. Then I spritzed with plain water to soften my ink blotches.

Stamps: Peachy Keen Stamps (PK-167 Rocket Blast, PK-187 EYE Sentiments, PK-182 Sweet and Silly Face Assortment)
Markers: Shinhan Touch Twin
Ink: Clearsnap Colorbox Sprays! (Sky, Grape, Blueberry)
Adhesives: Scotch ATG Tape runner

Cute card! Like your watercolored bkgrd and the rocket. Did you paper piece the striped area or color it that way? Whichever, it's real cute.

LOL - fun. I was looking at your title thinking you must have made a mistake. That's a perfect background for your spaceship.
