Hello friends! Today I’m up at MISTI blog sharing my first post with this fun and easy card using the ink smooshing technique but instead of using an acrylic block I will use the MISTI door to apply the Distress Oxide inks.
Let’s begin! I placed a watercolor panel inside the MISTI and I smooshed Cracked Pistachio Distress Oxide ink onto the MISTI door, sprayed water and then I closed the door to apply the color. I repeated these steps using Broken China and Faded Jeans Distress Oxide inks and let my panel dry. For a final touch I added splashes of gold metallic ink from Hero Arts.
Once the panel was dry I placed on top the Mega Hello Die from Altenew and run it through my die cutting machine. I saved the Hello die cut for another project and I adhered a white card base at the back of my negative panel. Additionally, I die cut one more Hello die cut out of white cardstock and heat embossed it with WOW! Metallic Gold Sparkle Embossing Glitter.
I glued the heat embossed Hello to the background and also stamped and heat embossed the sentiment onto white cardstock using WOW! Metallic Gold Embossing Powder. I added my sentiment on top of the card, a few gold sequins and my card was finished. I really hope you like this card and try this technique using your MISTI. Have an amazing day!
