WWC54 - Marsha's Bouncing Brayer Technique Challenge

We have a great challenge this week.  Have you ever tried doing the Bouncing Brayer Technique?  Well, there are some terrific examples created by the Watercooler Artists to get you excited.  But first, we have a surprise for you.

Introducing the Temporary Watercooler Artists

We have chosen four very creative ladies to join our team for the next three months.  You've seen their names among the participants linking up to our challenges.  Now you'll see their creations week after week and each one will also have the opportunity to host their own challenge during their time with us.

WWC54 - Challenge

The bouncing brayer technique is being hosted by our own Marsha Reed.  It's a challenge that, as she has warned us, will probably result in inky hands and the danger of getting fingerprints everywhere.  Here are some excellent tutorials which show how the technique works:

The technique can give you some wonderful effects as you'll see from the diverse samples created by our Watercooler Artists.  You can see how some have used only a small area of "bouncing brayer" to show off the technique and some have filled their entire piece of cardstock.  However it is used, the technique is eye-catching.  We begin with Marsha's beautiful Valentine card.  As usual, you can click on the name below the card sample in order to get to the appropriate blog post and see  the details of how the card was created.








And now it's your turn.  You can join us by linking up your creation with the InLinkz at the bottom of this challenge.

Remember:
          1.  This must be a new project---no back-linking to a previous post.
          2.  You must link your project back to our challenge (details at top of page).
          3.  You must link directly to your post, not simply your general blog.
          4.  Please link to no more than 4 challenges, including ours.
          5.  Have fun!

Please use the link-up below to share your project.  This Linky will close on Monday, February 15th at noon, Mountain Standard Time.
