Salted Watercolor Background

Photo Details

Poster: sanitystamper

This card was created for the Technique & Color Focus Challenge where we were asked to use our favorite color combo and combine it with a technique. I chose the Salted Background technique, Salted Background Tutorials at Splitcoaststampers.
I love how the ink blends together and it reminded me of a stormy sky.

Wonderful card. I have never been able to achieve this look with the salted background. I'm jealous of your technique. Beautiful colors.

Thanks for sharing.

I like how the salted background ties in with the stippling on the balloons!
