I was trawling through you tube and saw this technique which reminded me I used elastic(or laggy bands as we call them lol) bands round a piece of doubled up cardboard a few years ago and would you believe still had it in my bits and bobs jar!!!So fished it out and had a go -I masked off a centre section and used oxide ink pad on the bands instead of pens and didn't spray with the water,I then sponged on a lighter colour.The image is from Inkylicious and the stamped sentiment was a craft mag freebie.I was also inspired by the new "Up to one third" challenge at AAA Cards.

Very cool effect Carol!
ReplyDeleteI still have the bands on a block from last time I did this They are likely ready to shatter . This is lovely and fun to do ………...Lis
ReplyDeleteLove the concept of this design. Trendy and fun way to add color to the image as well.

So very cool - your compilation of techniques - and brilliant to use the middle third of the panel for your design.
ReplyDeleteReally amazing design Carol.
ReplyDeleteHugs Diane
This is stunning, Carol. I wouldn't guess you used elastic bands to create these beautiful stripes. Very inspiring. Hugs, my dear friend.
ReplyDeleteBrilliant technique, though it worked better for you than me...great result.x
ReplyDeleteCarol, I have never done that technique, but it looks wonderful.
ReplyDeleteWow! This is so striking!
ReplyDeleteIt's fantastic, I'd forgotten about that rubberband technique. CarolG
ReplyDeleteLove it Carol, a real statement piece and it's years since I did anything with rubber bands.

This is a cool technique that I haven't done in forever! We used to wrap the rubber bands on our brayers, but your method gives you more control. It's somehow perfect for this image. Very graphic and artsy!
ReplyDeleteThis look brilliant, what a great technique. Creative Blessings, Tracy x
