This week's PTI Make It Monday #114 took me back to my childhood!
Blowing watercolors/thinned paint using a straw was something I would do all the time, in fact my friends, not realizing how simple it was, thought it was some kind of a trick, and would keep asking me to make differents shapes..tree,flowers clouds!
I don't know when or where I had picked it up, but I used to have lots of fun with it!. Back then we did not have plastic straws and I would use the paper ones and go through quite a few of them trying to show this "trick"to my gullible and believing friends!
.......as I watched the video by Dawn, I thought how quickly we forget some simple but fun and easy little techniques and it had never occurred to me, all these years to use it on a card.
Since I did not have any reinkers, I went the old fashioned way and used diluted watercolors and tried to blow myself a tree !
The bird is by Memory box and the sentiments is by PTI
It was so much fun revisiting an old favorite of mine. Thanks Dawn!
