Today I played with distressed oxides and salt.
It turned out a little bit but only in patches. Need to
practice this technique with more salt as I don't think
I added enough.
My second attempt I used dylusion sprays and heaps of
Pink Rock Salt, much happier with the result.
Due to DT schedules I am posting both of these cards
in the one post.

Hi Annie
What fabulous makes! Love how you have used the technique.
Not one I have tried so will have to add it to my list!
Thank you for the inspiration.

Oh, another fab technique to try!! :) I have used salt technique years ago with silk (for batik) but haven't thought that it could be used on paper, too... You are always so inspiring, thanks so much!!
Beautiful both your cards, sprays have colors are more intense and perhaps give to the salt more water to absorb.
Hugs have a lovely weekend!
What a clever technique Annie, beautiful backgrounds xx

You can never have enough salt Annie, maybe that is why I did have high blood pressure or was that with having two Daughters?
Two stunning creations, gorgeous colours and love the way you have made the cards CAS so the super backgrounds are not over faced with embellishments.

Both of these backgrounds are fantastic, Annie! I love the more muted look of the pink with that gorgeous black framed flower! And the rich tones of the second are so beautifully die cut! Thanks for sharing these with us at CAS Watercolour!
your salt backgrounds are fantastic. I love the depth of colour you got with the dylusion sprays and the black framing on your flower. Thanks for joining us at CAS Watercolour.
Two beautiful cards, Annie! Your salted backgrounds are so pretty. Love the soft and delicate colours of your first card with the silhouette flower and frame. So perfect together!! And your second card is so vibrant with the sprays and salt. Another perfect framing to show off your artsy background! Thanks for sharing both with us at CAS Watercolour! xx
Both your salt backgrounds are gorgeous, aNNie:-) I have found what can add more of a salt effect is to spritz your salt with water after you have added to your watercolour background and let dry completely. TFS your beauties and joining us at CAS Watercolour. Hugs...
Both are so classy Annie, love them.
Hugs Veerle xxx
Beautiful cards Annie, the coarser the salt grains the more dramatic the effect.
Lorraine
I always love your beautiful cards, Annie. I did not know about salt, I think I will give it a try. I love how your cards turned out. Have a great week, my friend.
Two lovely salted backgrounds - nice to see a soft pastel version and a deep vibrant coloured version. Thanks so much for joining us at CAS Watercolour!
Two beautiful cards Annie!!! I must get my distressed oxides out and put them to good use.
