This card is for Lori aka stampmommaâs Dare To Get Dirty challenge.
I love doing salt resist back grounds and have done quite a few. I find salt flakes give me the best results as they are larger than table salt but smaller than rock salt, but it all has its place and gives you very different results.
I sponged the distress ink onto the watercolour paper then spritzed it with water and sprinkled the salt over. I set it aside to dry and moved onto another card while this was happening.
About an hour later I hit it with my heat tool just to make sure it was completely dry and then I used a stencil which was the negative cut out of the rose I used for Cherylâs card over on Teapot Tuesdayâ¦worked perfectly.
I mixed some modelling paste with the four different acrylic colours then swiped them over the stencil.
Finally I added the ribbon created the greeting and matted the card with the layers and there it is.
