After all, I can barely manage to stamp an image without dropping the black ink pad on the carpet or on my pants (good thing I only wear black pants). My first attempts at Color Burst powders were too frightening to describe and I intend to use them outside in our back yard from now on. However, not sure I need to strip down to use them..I'll settle for wearing old clothes, haha!

I sometimes feel that way about other background techniques when there are papers that look just like it. But it's lots of fun doing it, too, especially in a group with gals who are pros and willing to teach. I'm not sure I would've done this on my own if it weren't for Loll's retreat. <br /><br />I love the design layout you used to showcase it and it was smart to just color Robyn's die cut black. See, now that's something I never would've thought of. Always learning something new! Thank you and thank you for sharing at NBUS! Take care and all of you keep safe!!

This turned out gorgeous though, so we can easily leave the mess to those who enjoy it.

Hahaha....the joke's on us, I guess. :D<br /><br />As for myself, I tell you....every time I try so much as to fix myself a cup of coffee, I end up with the Dirty Pour technique!!! I am so much messier than my kids ever were!!! What a disaster I make in the kitchen...and everywhere else! Big stainless steel bowls under my kitchen projects help to contain the mess when I am mixing, measuring, and pouring....but I figure everything is washable and it is all part of the fun. Ha!! <br /><br />My craft room messy projects are a completely different story!! Fortunately for my across-the-fence neighbor, I haven't resorted to your stripped down in the backyard idea!! lol...<br /><br />Your card is lovely using Robyn's pretty die cut flower! And...with such fabulous backgrounds available, nobody *needs* to make a mess, unless they really want to.
