The challenge in today’s Make it Monday, is to do some ink blending on coloured cardstock.

It seemed simple but I did have to round file my first attempt.  I used a sponge dauber that was too old and it started to crumble and leave streaks in my blending when I tried to use it.

This is my second attempt and while it is much better, the water mark forks that I stamped in the background look somewhat dirty, rather than just being a deeper tone of the paper.  I thought about giving them a clear embossing finish but I had already removed the stamps from the Misti, so that wasn’t going to work.    Hmm……………….maybe try again with white embossed birthday candles in the background.
