Popcorn and Tie Die
This week I’m using the H2O Monochromatic Family of cardstock again and I chose to coordinate it with Cosmo Cricket’s Early Bird 6×6 paper. The image from My Favorite Things, called Chick Flick, is so fun and reminds me of movie nights with friends, with everyone dressed in their pajamas or casual clothes. That gave me the idea to try to create a tie dyed t-shirt using Copic markers!
First I created the tie-dye pattern onOne Sheet Wonder with a “rainbow” of Copic markers.
SUPPLY LIST:
Cardstock: H2O Monochromatic Family: Whale Watching, Bermuda Triangle; Paper: Cosmo Cricket
Then I stamped the image over it, making sure the center of the “rainbow” was lined up in the middle of the t-shirt.
Next, I cut out the t-shirt very carefully! I also used another piece of the patterned paper and some Bermuda Triangle from the H2O monochromatic family to paper piece the girls’ pants, stamping and cutting as I did for the t-shirt.
And here’s a closeup:
I hope you’ll try this tie-dye technique! If you do, come back and leave a link, so we all can see!
Until next time, have fun creating!

Leave us a comment (on this post) with a link to your blog where you posted our blinkie, and you are entered to win! That’s all there is to it! We will draw one very lucky winner on April 2nd. (if you already have our blinkie, leave us a comment and tell us that too, you are eligible to win).
Second, to celebrate National Craft Month, we are holding a month long contest here at Couture Cardstock, and your participation will determine the size of the prize!
