AAA Birthday #70 – Ink Smooshing

Hello there, it’s time for a new challenge over at AAA Birthday and do we have a great theme for you!

Ink smooshing is one of my favourite techniques; I love how your outputs are never the same and how you can layer the colours if you dry between applications.

I made 2 cards for this challenge, one feminine and one masculine. I used Tim Holtz Distress Inks in Saltwater taffy, Picked raspberry and Seedless preserves (feminine) and Mermaid lagoon, Cracked pistachio and Peacock feathers (masculine). The sentiment on the feminine card is from Altenew ‘Birthday Greetings’ and I used a die cut for the sentiment on the masculine card. The butterfly die was in my stash and I added Satmpin Up enamel dots to both cards.

Come join in the fun; we’d love to see how you were inspired. Check out the projects that the other artists at AAA Birthday have created, take the challenge and link your creation to the challenge post. We’d love to have you join us.  You have until Friday, 28th February to link up your project.

Thanks for looking and have a great day.

Hey there! I’m a card-making enthusiast with a passion for creativity that knows no bounds. Currently, I’m fortunate to be a part of four fantastic international card design teams, where I get to explore my craft and connect with fellow artists from all corners of the globe. It’s amazing how the world of card making can bring people together, and I’m constantly inspired by the diversity of styles and ideas that come my way. Beyond my card-making adventures, I lead a pretty busy life in the learning and development field, where I work full time as a Learning Lead. I thrive on helping others grow and reach their full potential, and it’s a role that keeps me on my toes and constantly learning. When I’m not immersed in the world of work or crafting, you can find me on the netball court, coaching and sharing my love for the game with a bunch of amazing individuals. So, whether I’m crafting, guiding professional development, or coaching on the court, I’m all about embracing lifes colorful and creative possibilities! Thanks for stopping by my corner of the web, and I hope you enjoy exploring my card creations and more.
