 | | For CAS411 (Hot Beverages), I chose tea as I'm a real tea drinker (can't stand coffee)!
I used the shaving foam method of marbling. I stuck to just two colours of Distress reinkers - Faded Jeans and Seedless Preserves. After swirling the inks on the foam, I just started playing with different scraps of cs. First I pulled a piece of regular fairly heavy cs through it. This got me a very dark marbled piece. I then tried a few others. I did not like the results on glossy or coated cs so tossed them. But my final pull was on a piece of quite lightweight watercolour paper and I really liked it so used it for the background for this card.
I die cut the first very dark marbled piece with the PTI teapot die, and cut a second teapot so I could layer it for more substance. I then coated it with Glossy Accents to make it look more like a china teapot. I trimmed the background piece so that I could place the teapot on it as if there was a swirl of lovely blackcurrant tea scent coming out of the spout. With a paintbrush, I added a bit of watered down reinker around the base of the teapot to ground it. |
