Inky Paper Towel Returns for More Cards

Hello! I appreciate your stopping by!  I have been playing again with Paper Towels, a new technique for me.   I have been inspired by Loll's challenge at CAS Mix Up challenge to use/recycle inky paper towels.   The butterfly was cut with a Cheery Lynn die from some card stock that I transferred ink to from a inky paper towel that I also used on another card.  A section of the actual inky paper towel was cut and layered beneath a white card stock panel with an opening die cut with a Spellbinders circle die. The colors on the towel are Distress Oxide inks  Fired Brick, Fossilized Amber, and Squeezed Lemonade.  I attached the butterfly and  added some die cut flowers from yellow CS ( used Spellbinders Shapeabilities Flower Bundle) to the white panel. Then I stamped a Papers and Such sentiment with Fired Brick ink.  Attached all to a White Card Base.

Welcome!  Playing again with transferring colors from an inky paper towel.  I think the colors on the towel are DOI Fired Brick, Fossilized Amber, and Squeezed Lemonade.  First I transferred some of the colors on to a panel of White CS.  I added some splatters of the Fired Brick with a GKD Stamp from Tiny Textures-have more control of splatters with the stamp.  I then transferred more color to a White CS and cut it with Memory Box die Pippi Butterfly.  I kept the pieces intact by adding Stick It paper to the back and inked the edges with red. I wanted the pattern of the paper towel to show so kept pieces together. Assembled the card with a GKD Faded Brick CS, the white panel and the Butterfly.  I stamped the Papers and Such sentiment with Fired Brick ink. 

My photo shows another die cut butterfly that I will use on another card. Stay tuned!

Paper Towel with Poppies.

Morning! I am always interested in trying new techniques and using new products for making cards.  For this card I am using Paper Towels which I had on my work station.   I was inspired by Loll's challenge at CAS Mix Up challenge to use/recycle inky paper towels.  For my card I used a paper towel inked with Blue  Distress Oxide inks and transferred colors on to a White CS.  Check out Loll's video for instructions here.  Before I added the flower you could see part of the word "Bounty" in the paper towel imprint. But I am not advertising any particular towel, just what I had and was not paying attention to what section of the towel I used.  To finish the card I added some die cut flowers- Memory Box Darling Poppies- from Yellow and Green CS scraps.  Stamped the GKD sentiment with Memento Bamboo Leaves ink. Attached to a Blue Card base.
