Half sheet c/s size
I used Salted Backgrounds technique, hereÂ’s BethÂ’s tutorial. Tutorials at Splitcoaststampers
We changed the ink cartridge in the printer and I just couldnÂ’t let the ink go to waste, soÂ….thatÂ’s what makes up the background along with water and salt.
I guess the project wasnÂ’t totally dry because I stamped a solid SU sword fish in the upper left corner and it slowly disappeared. Maybe it wasnÂ’t a salt water fish! Bad humor!
I used cut strips of drywall tape as border.
IÂ’ll put this in the Keiki box for one of the teens and plan to make some more. They always need teen boy cards.
