My card is for the CAS311 challenge on Splitcoaststampers to use rainbow colors. This was such an easy card. I swiped my Distress Paints on a Ziploc bag, misted it and crumpled. I opened it up and placed it on my image and that created all the wonderful colors. Distress paints, stains, and inks are so much fun and you can use them so many ways for a color wash.

I've never heard of using the Ziploc bag before, thanks for that little hint. I'll try doing that maybe today while I'm in the house with all this snow. LOL Seriously, your card is just lovely with all these bright cheery colors and your silhouette flowers. Have a great day.
That looks like a very fun and easy technique, Brenda, and I love the end result. It creates a perfect background for your silhouette image. Note to self: use your silhouette stamps!
What a neat idea using a ziploc bag. The results are great ... love the look! Another fab one layer card!
Such a beautiful card - love the background - great job as always thanks for sharing!!!
Lovely mix of botanicals with splashes of colour :)
What a great background! It sounds like fun to do too! Love the silhouette flower garden.
Very pretty way to do that background and I think the stamp was made for it too! SO beautiful!

Didn't know about this technique, but it sounds similar to the copic one where you swipe the markers on plastic, then swipe the glossy c/s over it. It surely made a lovely soft rainbow background, and I'll be trying this for certain (if I don't forget it!). The silhouette image is just perfect against the jewel colors and what a wonderful card you have made! TFS & Hugs.
Gorgeous card Benzi ... I love your pretty coloured panel (sounds like you got nice and inky making it LOL )

Wow! Interesting way to get the rainbow colors using plastic bag...sounds fun! Your background is gorgeous with lots of pretty color!
Gorgeous, Benzi! Wish I had a tutorial I could follow to try this. I really love the end result. :-D
WOW, Brenda this does not look easy to me...lol But it is beautiful. I envy you and all your creativity. Hugs, joann
You make it sound so easy Brenda, but when I try these things I often get a muddy mess. Your background is just beautiful and I love the over stamped flowers and dragonflies. Gorgeous.
