Last night we had our Cardmaker's club meeting and I showed them the reinker spread technique. I have seen other demonstrators tutorials but thought I'd try to make my own with photos.
|
Here are the supplies all ready to go - Pretty in Pink, Tangerine Tango, Riding Hood Red. |
|
Emboss the large flower image with Versamark and white embossing powder onto Shimmery White paper (you need a thicker paper to hold the water in the next step.) |
|
|
Spritz the paper thoroughly with water. |
|
Add a few drops of reinker fluid to a paint tray. With an aqua painter pick up the lightest colour of ink and touch the tip of the painter to the water. Repeat in various areas of the flower. |
|
Repeat with all the colours of ink. |
|
Continue until the entire flower is entirely coloured and allow LOTS of time to dry. 1/2 hr or more depending on the amount of water on the surface. |
|
Trim out the flower and add to the card. Voila! |
|

This is
where I first found the technique and colour scheme. Thanks Sharon Rogers for a great video.
Try this new technique this weekend - it's pretty fun!
Cheers,
