Hello friends!
This is my 2nd post today. For "Show & Share" and winners announcement, please click HERE.
Recently I have been experimenting more with ink-smooshing techniques.
Yes, Virginia.... I am telling myself that there more techniques and tricks to it!
I took out Herb Garden and tried my hands at ink-smooshing again.
I am slowing learning on my own and find it intriguing.

I tried to use the inks that are closest to the actual herb colors. Since I enjoy using herbs, over the years , I grew many many pots of herbs and they all ended up, well, ...gone.
Playing with this iamge makes me happy. Because I can't grow healthy plants, but at least, I can keep the herbs on paper looking healthy and pretty!
One note about the parsley, I did use a color pencil to add more green.
Because the leaves are so small, it is best to use a pencil to add more green to it.

I matched the colors of the pots with Spiced Marmalade, Fired Brick, Rustic Hinge and Mustard Seed. All ink-smooshing were created with Distress Oxide.

Pretty image and color combo! I have to try some ink smooshing again. Have not done it in awhile.
Beautifully done Virginia. Love how you have concentrated your ink blending to the different parts of the stamp.
I saw this on Instagram! I LOVE IT!
wow!! You make it look so easy!!
what a pretty card and I think you did an amazing job with the ink smooshing.
I love herb gardens so I was sure to love this card. I think you smooshing is both lovely and dynamic. It creates a lot of movement behind your stamped images. Makes them come alive.
Your placement of the smooshing is perfect, lovely card!!!!
How do you get the perfect ink smooshing every time?! Doesn't look messy at all!
Love this technique and the herb theme.
I like the shares of the ink squishing. Great mix of color.
