C002a Streaking

Crayola Intense Chisel tip markers was used on this card.

Prepare card by folding 8.5” x 5.5” glossy white cardstock in half – a bone folder helps to make a nice flat fold.
Using the Magenta rose #09.145.K page 144, color the rose with the pink marker and the leaves with the green marker. Huff on the stamp to create moisture and stamp in the center of the card. Set aside.

Cut a Post-It note in an oval using decorative scissors. Cover the rose with the Post-It note. Ink up a makeup sponge with the tip of the yellow marker by pinching the marker a couple of times, getting the sponge fairly wet. Set the sponge on the Post-It note and pull it towards yourself – only swipe one time. DO NOT go back and forth. Do this in four to six areas on the cardstock. Ink up another sponge with a pink marker. Use the same motion as above, overlapping the color in some areas. Finish by inking another makeup sponge with the teal marker, streaking until the cardstock is covered. Remove the Post-It note.

Seal with cheap hairspray or Sealant to preserve the color.
