THE ARTICLE BELOW IS FROM THE STAMPIN' UP BLOG AND WAS WRITTEN BY CHRISTINA N, STAMPIN' UP CONCEPT ARTIST:
"Today I wanted to demonstrate some basic techniques for creating different splatter sizes. I like to use the larger Aqua Painter for all of the splattering I do because the bristles hold more ink. I start by filling the Aqua Painter with some Classic Stampin’ Ink Refill and rubbing alcohol. The more ink refill I use, the darker the splatters will be. "
Small splatters
"Squeeze your Aqua Painter to get some ink into the bristles. Then lightly tap your Aqua Painter on your pointer finger and over your project."
Medium splatters
"Squeeze your Aqua Painter to get ink into your bristles. It’s basically the same motion you used with the small splatters—without the tapping . . . and you will want to hold your Aqua Painter more upright. Quickly move your Aqua Painter towards your project and stop abruptly. You’re basically trying to fling the ink onto your project."
Big splatters (drops)
"Hold your Aqua Painter vertical—and high above your project. Squeeze the Aqua Painter and let it drip onto your project."
"Another fun technique you can try is mixing VersaMark Refill with rubbing alcohol. This will leave sticky splatters that you can cover with embossing powder, like our Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder."
