In fact, about three wks ago, I was the hostess on 'You Can Do It' challenge
and introduced the partecipants to the : 'Straw Blowing Tecnique'

In fact, about three wks ago, I was the hostess on 'You Can Do It' challenge
and introduced the partecipants to the : 'Straw Blowing Tecnique'
known also as 'Blow Art'. Most of the gals have
never heard of this tecnique,,,,it is really a FUN one to try too!
Unfortunatley, I couldn't find anything on SCStutorials, but did find a few you tube videos that I can share with you lovely peeps ;o)
This tecnique is so much fun and all you need are: a straw, reinkers,
glossy card stock and a paper towel for wiping.
Once your c/s is dry , please use a SILHOUETTE stamp
to enhance your beautifully created background....
Here are the tutorial links for you to peruse.
(btw: I followed Frenchie's instructions for my straw tecnique card)
......HAVE FUN BLOWING.... 
Straw Blowing Technique using Reinkers - YouTube
Straw Blowing background frenchiestamps.com - YouTube
The Straw Technique for Beautiful Backgrounds - YouTube
As you can see here, I made 4 background samples to show you,
all using the Straw Tecnique explained above
With each panel, I completed four unique cards ....
I sure hope you'll try this tecnique. sometimes..
I know you'll love it too!! ♥

This above was my very first attempt at
a straw blowing card 'put together'....
followed by the lovely geisha,
then the four girlfriends and, lastly
I ended it with the 'rainy' card I chose to showcase at the top....
Stamps used in each card:
*Million Dollar Moment (SU)
*Priceless (SU)

Paola these are gorgeous!! Love the technique - trouble is I only have on re-inker and that is black :-)
I also have loads of cards that I have never blogged. Don't worry about it,just do what you can when you can - after all, it is your blog and there are no 'blog police' :-)
