I was tempted to use chalks, like Sabrina, but then saw these inks in the same drawer and thought 'Eureka!' I used the twist sponge technique, creating these bow shapes. Actually, they could be flying things if I doodled some antennae and that works for the color challenge. I mixed the inks to get close to the colors, not bad for a first attempt. If I add any embellishments, sentiment, doodles, I'll take another picture and repost. When I do use these, I remember how fun they can be. I've only ever done rainbows or stripes with them. The butterfly is new, finally got a butterfly die set.

I've never heard of the twist sponge technique. It looks like enormous fun - inky fingers? To me they have a very Asian/oriental look. Butterflies are always great, big and small!

Wow, you took me on a trip down memory lane. I remember having such fun with those inks and sponges.
