i am having laods of fun playing with the sanded pencil technique
this involves using my water colour pencils
and softly rubbing them against sand paper
to produce a fine coloured dust
that gets moved over wet water colour paper.
i made this card today using that technique and inspired by a challenge over at just add ink to use watercolours
it is made using the square punch and the corner punch mainly
with the heart from the owl punch
and the love die from the embellishments framelits.
can you see the cool texture that the dust particles leave on the paper?
keep your eyes peeled for another card coming soon using the same technique
cheers ears

What an awesome technique, Clare. LOVE the texture on your little art pieces, and the colours are amazing. Thanks for joining in the fun at Just Add Ink this week. :)
What a cool technique Clare. So random and so textural. The panels look really striking contrasted against the white. Thanks for joining us at Just Add Ink.

Now that sounds like a fun technique to try... thanks for sharing it. I love the variety of colour you have got on your card - I think it works well with the shapes. Chantell JAI
