Just Us Girls #338 - Trend Week

I'm hosting over at Just Us Girls for Trend Week.  I have seen a lot of smooshing going on around blogland and decided to give it a go!  I think it makes a very soft watercolor effect.  Just smoosh some ink onto an acrylic block or your craft sheet, mist with water and stamp onto some cardstock.  So get out your acrylic blocks and smoosh some colors.

Come see what our Guest Designer - Angie Cimbala and the rest of the JUGS Design Team have created by smooshing some ink.



With everyone smooshing, I just had to give it a try!  I used Memento Teal Zeal and SU Cool Caribbean smooshed on an acrylic block, misted and smooshed onto some watercolor paper.  After it was dry, stamped the flowers from Stampendous and the senitment from Gina Marie in Memento Nautical Blue. 

What colors are you going to smoosh?   Come play along with us and you could be chosen as our next Chic of the Week, which would then make you eligible for a chance to be our next Guest Designer!  Please limit your entries to 3.
