I think Back to Basics #12's "inky backgrounds" will be a blast! I LOVE to get messy!
Today's challenge was just what I needed to pull out my Brusho Crystal Colors, and "brush" them off for a little fun, lol. I decided to work with a my heavier watercolor papers for this one, because I knew I wanted to really play with the "blooming" effect of the Brusho crystals. This turned out to be a good call, as was the "messy board" I put down first. Put a spritzer in my hand, and it just goes everywhere! Anyway, I started with a heavy water spritz, and then tapped on blue and orange crystals, letting them bloom how they wanted, though I did add a few more water spritzes after the crystals on the corners. I blotted any big drips with a tissue, then finished with my heat tool - too impatient to wait! I decided some big Mango letters were the perfect finish, and I added a congrats on the inside - so fun!
