Sponge
Step-by-Step
-
Step 1
Ink the rounded part of a sponge by pressing directly on an ink pad. Ranger Distress Broken China was used here.
Important Hint:
Before moving on to the next step, remove extra ink by rubbing sponge on scrap paper. The soft look is achieved with very little ink. -
Step 2
Use a circular motion to apply ink, leaving many white open spaces. Re-ink your sponge, remove excess ink and continue sponging ink randomly.
Different cardstocks will give different looks - the cardstock on the left is smooth white and on the left is textured white.
-
Continue adding color until you have the color that you want.
-
Step 3
Finish your card using your Sponged Sky.
