As I was thinking of color combinations it popped into my head that this technique would make a great PACKER BACKER card!!! So in honor of the Green Bay Packers football team - I came up with this! Crushed Curry and Tranquil Tide are perfect!!! You can make a color combo for highlight a favorite team for just about anyone!
This one is Crumb Cake and Pacific Point:
And for the girls I chose Berry Burst and Basic Black:
Dimensions:
- Card base 4-1/4" x 11" scored at 5-1/2"

I'll definitely be trying this. It brings back lots of memories of tie-dyed shirts. I like seeing older techniques revived and refreshed. Thanks!

I love all color version of your cards. They look great with sneaker stamp. It reminds me tie-dyed T-shirt, too! Thank you for sharing.
