It's the 12th of January, time to get messy. (insert deer-in-the-headlight look) As you likely recall from previous 12ths, I am not one who likes messes. Not one bit. BUT a challenge is only a challenge if it stretches you, and I'm up for the Hot Mess Success Challenge.
Barb, Carol, Darlene, Terry, and I create cards for the Hot Mess Success challenge each month and share them on the 12th.
It's Anything Goes - as long as there is something messy involved.
I sprinkled some Ken Oliver powders on it and gave it a good spritz of water.
After doing this a couple of times to get the color mixture I wanted, I placed a piece of heavy cardstock on top of it to remove some of the excess water and color.
Then I designed my card.
The good news is I have this altered paper to use later (who knows; maybe it will show up in another Hot Mess Success card).
Papers: Accent Opaque 120# White, Recollections Black, and SU Lovely Lipstick CS
Messy Medium: Ken Oliver Powders (Lemon Yellow, Marigold, and Peony)
Dies: Honey Bee Sweet Stack Rectangles, MFT Stitched Rectangles, and scrapbook.com I Love You
Embellishments: Amazon Nail Art Rhinestones and Maker Forte Crystal Heart

WOW!!! I love the colors! And now you have another panel to use later, that's great! I'm not familiar with these powders, I'll have to look them up. I wonder if they are similar to Brushos. Stunning card, Jeanette!
A great card Jeanette - what fun you had with the powders, and I love that you got the other 'print' - I love doing that also. A great finish to the 'heart' panel
Blessings

What a fun card. I too have some of these and need to get them out. I can't wait to see what you do with the second panel!
