Hope you all have had a lovely summer, have relaxed and spend time with your loved ones! Fall is here with lovely colors and soon Christmas is here
!
My challenge for you this week is to create "Faux Marble", I think it�s an easy way to create a background paper with texture even if it�s flat!
I�ve done a simple
instruction!
You need only watercolor paper, water and any type of ink, like ink spray inks, watercolors, acrylic etc.
Step 1
Spray the watercolor paper with water on both sides.
Step 2
Wrinkle the wet paper and then flatten it out, wrinkle it more if you want more texture
Step3
Spray or color it in any way while it still wet
Step4
When the paper is dry, add some darker color the the wrinkles with a blending tool and glue the paper on a cardstock or a heavier paper to give it more stability.
Step5
Use it as a background or for a die or both!
We hope you find these challenges inspiring and bring out your creativity! I hope you find this challenge easy and FUN!
