I have really been wanting to try the tea bag stamping and have been playing around with it a bit. The new Watercolor challenge is perfect for it. Those tea bags surprisingly take ink well. This was an ice tea bag I completely cut open after drying.
I applied my ink smoosh in a swiping motion and did a different color of ink at a time (two blues and one red - one of the blues was a dioxide) to kind of mimic stripes in a very loose way.
I have to say that I am totally excited about the new challenge, Kia and team. All of you inspire me with your beautiful use of ink and paint. I know I will learn a lot!

Wowsers Nancy! What a fabulous card this is! Your sky is amazing and really sets a nice scene for your military figures, the birds and the draped flags. What a great card to do teabag stamping on too! ~Karen.
