Crafting through the Coronavirus Week 19 Challenge

Week 19 of our fun challenges!
Wendy suggested inky blending, any medium will work. I have noticed many of you have mastered this through out our challenges!
I'm going to add a twist for bonus points. Gina K and her daughter Rina K released a video on Monday and it is blowing up the crafting internet.
If you have been around for a while this is similar to the technique called Joseph's Coat. You lay color on a piece of cardstock and clear emboss to capture the colors. You then ink with a dark color and the embossing resists the ink.
In reverse stencilling, lay your color down on cardstock and place a stencil on top and apply dark ink, lift the stencil and your colors pop.
So now you have 2 ways to achieve similar results!
Remember this is all fun and games, share whatever you are working on, stay in touch, get crafty & be well my friends! Susan *Ü*
