5 masks = 10 different backgrounds Part 2



If you are like me and want to get more mileage out of your masks and mists, don't waste the residual mists left on your masks. They can produce some cool abstract designs. Just press a sheet of cardstock/watercolour paper on the masks. Previously I've shared how to use 5 masks to get 10 different backgrounds. Here's Part 2. :)






Remember that the misted pattern is just the first step to producing your own patterned paper. You can add in stamping, texture paste and other mediums to further enhance your background. The possibilities are endless. ;)

So there you have it. 5 masks = 10 different backgrounds Part 2. What do you think?
