Hello again,
I've been playing around with some more techniques from the classes over at Bluprint. Mayuri's class on Radiant Stamping Techniques gave me an idea for this week's Less is More challenge - Out of Focus:
In this class she showed how to create a geometric design by rotating the same stamp in different colours. I used one of Waltzingmouse's Funky Feathers - however, to achieve the blurry look, I took one of Catherine Pooler's ideas and sprayed the stamp with water before stamping. The hello sentiment was a freebie from Poppy Stamps covered in a thick coat of Glossy Accents.
For the second one I smooshed a distress ink background and added a simple fish stamp and sentiment from Altenew's Ori Kami set. I'm popping this over to Addicted to CAS' 'Animal' themed challenge and CASology's Zodiac challenge - I'm a Pisces so it seemed logical to use the fish symbol for this one.
Lastly, I had some of the stamped squares left over from yesterday's technique in the previous post. They fitted perfectly for CAS(E) This Sketch #368- I just added another Altenew Hennah Elements bloom and Cheery Lynn flourish and made a more CAS version of yesterdays card. Since I used Altenew's colours (again) I'm linking up over there too!
Hope you have the time to get inky this week!
Claire

What a lovely trio, Claire ... another delicious single bloom against the dark background, a cool smooshy ocean for your graphic fish, and a brilliant graphic rainbow design with the shiny black sentiment ... my favourite! Hugs, Anita :)
