Experimenting With Colors

...and a new idea.



These were done by taking an ordinary unscented baby wipe, and placing it on a tray. This will act as the ink pad.
Then, random drops of 3 inks in gorgeous mustard, eggplant and olive were squeezed next to one another on that wipie.
Ta da! What's great is that everytime you dip your stamp onto the wipie ink pad, you can place it in a different spot or direction, to get the colors in different places on the flower print!
I loved this technique! Thank you, dear Lu-Lu! {This would be fun to do with kids, too!)
