High Tide and Sponging

Good Evening Everyone,

I've been working on these beautiful cards trying to get better with my sponging technique. I love how these cards turned out. I saw the technique with this stamp set, High Tide, on Tina Zinck's website. You can find all the information here . She does such beautiful work. I tried out a few different colors so I will show you the colors I used as well. As you can tell, no two cards are the same. The first card I used the same colors as Tina.

On these two cards, I used Bermuda Bay and Calypso Coral.

I sure hope you give this technique a try.

I did the majority of this card by sponging and blending different colors. I sponged the whole card first and then stamped.
