Splatter! Edited (edits in red)

Hi!  Did you have a fabulous weekend?  I sure did!  We celebrated Thanksgiving a bit early as ALL four of my kids were home this weekend!  It was the first time in what seems like forever that we have all been together!  We had a house full of family and friends yesterday - about 26 people in all!  It was glorious, everyone had a fantastic time!


I am running a bit behind (what else is new) on  A Compendium of Curiosities Challenge 22 so I am having another mad dash to post before the deadlines.   Good thing I work well under pressure! lol  Details about the challenge and prize can be found on the fabulous Linda Ledbetter's StudioL3 blog.  She has a new challenge every Monday!  This week we were told to turn page 52 for Alcohol Ink Splatter!


I started with some acetate (recycled from an old report cover) (so much for following directions), using a negative mask I spray painted the image with black paint on the acetate, after the paint dried I applied the technique of the week directly to the acetate and over the black paint, added some embellishments and was done!





Have a fabulous week!


Linda

  2. WOW, Linda, no wonder you wanted to do the technique this way. It's absolutely stunning! The acetate over top of the splatter gives the images such a dreamy, soft look and adds such a great multi-dimensional element. "Magical" is right-- these are some of the most beautiful holiday pieces I've ever seen.

    I'm glad you had such a wonderful early Thanksgiving, and I hope this week's is just as nice.
