(TIP – after spraying roll a kitchen towel to even out the colors or place a tissue & roll a brayer)
 
 
 
 
We were flooded with queries about COLOR SPLASH sprays so lets start with the basics of Color Splash sprays. 
  • These work best on paper, card stock, water color paper, handmade paper, fabric, burlap & other porous surfaces. 
  • This does not restrict their use only on porous surfaces! I have got awesome result on vellum too (pic follows in the post)
  • For vibrant colors use directly 
  • For a lighter & blended background mist with water
  • Ideal for mixed media techniques, DIY & other crafting projects
  • Create single color backgrounds or multicolor. You can also create unique shades by building of layers of different colors
  • Color images with them
  • Create backgrounds & diecut to use as embellishments for layouts/cards
 
Let me now show you some ways I experimented with the sprays! 
In this tag I used three colors as mentioned – 
 
 
(TIP – for a more even look spray the tag with water first, the colors mix better but will also be less vibrant. Play around a bit, get messy! If its too intense, spray with water over them to tone down the colors)
 
Next up is a clean & simple background using stencilsSpray the inks over a stencil.
 
 
 
 
Another great use of sprays is with heat embossed images, love how the images resists the spray & pops up amidst the vibrant colors! Also added some texture in the background using distress ink with a stencil.
 
 
Spraying over a printed burlap sheet transformed the look of this!
 
 


Loved the vibrancy of colors  over the vellum piece in the next tag! 


 
Next I tried using the spray over texture paste – 


 
In this tag I mixed tangerine color splash with modelling paste & stencilled over the background – 
 
 
 
When used over canvas, spray 2-3 times for a vibrant color. You can use your heat tool to speed up the drying!
 


I could not stop playing around with these sprays & used them even on a coloring tag from the store – 
 
 
The whitewash alterables too soaked the color well ! Now is that not a super quick way to create unique gifts?
