The lovely folks over at Pinkfresh Studio are having a new challenge with the theme of stripes and gradients. I thought that sounded like fun, so I decided to play along. I created multiple projects and love all of them! Plus I made extra ink-blended papers featuring stripes and gradients, so I will be able to use the rest of them in upcoming projects. I am looking forward to it!

In the picture above, you can see one of the cards I made for this challenge.

And here in the picture below, you can see some of the papers I made to use in this challenge.

I used 3 colors of Pinkfresh Studio’s dye ink to make these papers:

In the finished papers, the colors look lighter than they appear when used at full strength, because I diluted them with water. I was aiming for a light, watercolor-y effect. Even with the dilution, they turned out a bit darker than I was hoping, but the colors are so vibrant and pretty that I ended up loving them.
