Default Credit card technique
Quite a few people have asked what the Credit Card Technique is after seeing my 'Autumn' card I posted recently (attached). I'm sure it's been listed somewhere already, but here it is again - really easy. Put blobs of acrylic or watercolor paint (from a tube preferably) onto the end of a scrap of paper or cardstock, then use the edge of an old credit card to swipe/drag the paint along the paper without lifting the card, either in a straight line, wavy line or randomly, depending on the result you want. Allow paper to dry before stamping.
