Sand Dollars

{jane bosi}  Happy Thursday, Junkies!!!  I'm happy to share a colorful collection of cards I made, just goofin' around!  

As I sat down to play, I knew I wanted to use this beautiful Sand Dollar background.  But, I wanted color!  Inspired by this image, randomly found online somewhere....
I pulled out the tried and true Non-stick Color technique and got on it!  The two earth tone prints are from the same application of ink. Specifically, I was using Ranger Ink Distress Stains.  The two blue cards vary in that I used the stains directly to the stamp surface.  One also has a spray of water to blend the inks--the other is just straight ink to stamp to paper...Can you tell the difference?

Finally, I took all of this:

Added: Love You Circle, You Make Me Proud, Be Silly and Forever and A Day to come up with this:

Be inspired by color!  Try your hand and use the Yahoo group to show us what you've come up with!  Or, use the comment section to link to your own creation!  I can't wait to see your work!

Don't forget to be awesome!  TTFN, Jane
