My friend Diane did a wonderful tutorial on tie dyeing paper using shaving cream and inks.... It's right here. (Scroll down to Friday, September 11 post)This is my version of a tie dyed paper. I scooch (izzat a word?) Marvy ink pads all over white card stock, blending in one color after another. I love the final result. For this card, I used Walk In My Garden Cricut cart for the flowers and leaves. I cut the flowers out in graduated sizes, decreasing by 1/2 inch with each cut, stacked them, curled the petals and doodled on the petal for final effect. The card base has been polka-dotted with the Quickutz Polka Dot Embossing folder which I ran through my Cuttlebug. TFL...
