Wispy Sky 1
Kevin Nakagawa from Stampscapes did such a cool winter scene on pearlescent paper. Yesterday I remembered that I had one sheet of Opal pearlescent paper and decided to play around with some wispy skies. Dye inks were applied to the paper using a Colorbox Stylus tools in a random wispy manner. I angled the tool to get some harder lines and really liked how those came out. One of the tricks with this technique is not thinking too much about the end result. Archival Jet Black was used for the stamping and liked how the ink sunk into the paper underneath the pearlescent shine. The card was splattered with white acrylic ink to create a snowy feelings, I also added some of the ink using a paint brush.
