Twisted Challenge 01 - Blown Ink

Welcome to the first challenge at The Technique Twist!
We're so excited you are joining us today! Our goal at TTC is to push the boundaries. We give you a technique along with our own ideas & want to see you what you create to take that technique to the next level.
So let's get started! Our first technique is Blown Ink. I'm sure you've seen this all over the web lately but what can you do to make it unique? If you have never used this technique before, it's very easy.  You'll need reinkers, cardstock or paper of choice, a straw, paper towels, and some sort of covering to protect your workspace (scrap paper, etc). Place a few drops of reinker on your cardstock then using the straw gently blow it across the paper at different angles.  Soak up some of the reinker with a paper towel if you want a lighter result.  Repeat with other colors.  The bigger challenge is how you can take this up a notch?

PLUS - Since it's our first challenge at The Technique Twist Challenge blog, what better way to celebrate than with a blog hop!  To enter, once you've linked your creation leave a comment here on this post as well as each of the designer's blogs for your chance to win a great prize pack!  We'll randomly draw one name as our winner out of all the entries!
Contest ends on June 26, 2013 at 1159p ET. Good luck!

Check out the great projects below by our fabulously twisted designers!

    Thanks for this new challenge blog! I don't get a lot of challenges done throughout the school year and really hope to get more done over summer vacation. I have been wanting to try this technique for a while but hadn't gotten around to it. Thanks for challenging me!
