Love this technique! Another way to get more whole bubbles onto the paper is to blow the bubbles high as you we’re doing but then take your spoon and scoop them onto the paper really softly because when you put the paper down on top it pops the bubbles and leaves more of a splashed look but the whole bubbles (even the really small bubbles) spooned onto the paper once it dries shows a more pronounced bubble in my experience. Another fun and inspiring video! Thank you for sharing!
Hi Anne! I simply love love the results of your experiments! You understood perfectly the technique. PVA is a kind of latex ink and there´s no difference between it and the acrylic ink. I use both to make this. I think it´s very usefull for background papers. I also love the other experiment with coffee and bubbles! Very fun and funny!!! Lol. You asked me some more tips... To make work easier, you can cut the sponge into 4 parts. ( one for each color ), so you don´t need to wash the sponge to apply a new color and save materials. if you want to make it more colorful, you can use more colors, randomly. It´s a good idea to use these papers to doodle. When the paper is colorful, I love doodle flowers, birds, butterflies and they turn out very cute. Thank you for having courage to try this chalenge...🩷🩷🩷🩷🌹🌹🌹🌹
Oh, Marcia, thank you so much for all these terrific tips! I appreciate you so much! I think I can get acrylic ink here, but I appreciate your encouragement to just use what I already have! Now, my friend, might we expect you to start your own RUclips channel? ❤️
Yes, super for journaling on - although I like the patterns so much, I want to showcase them on the front! I'll make more soon. If I can stand hearing myself make that slurpy noise!
I love how your papers turned out. I definitely am going to give this a try using watercolors. Thank you for another brilliant video. Hugs from Michigan, my friend. ❤❤❤
Great tutorial. I’ve never tried using a sponge before. I have done the bubble technique on untreated paper and envelopes. I used water dish soap and reinker ink. Worked pretty good.
I’ve watched Barbara do this , now you. It looks like a fun process, I’ll experiment after the holidays. From now until January 1 things are rather hectic 😗. I did get a chuckle watching you do it though. Have a great weekend
Thank you, Sandi! Yes, I'm also full of plans of things I can do "after the holidays." Crafting helps me keep sanity and balance now...and we'll need it even more in the year ahead!
@ If it weren’t for my hobbies I don’t know what I would do, and I agree will indeed help us through the upcoming events 💙. Hope you’re having a good weekend
Another fun experiment is adding paint to shaving cream to make marbled paper. Very unexpected and super cool results! If you search paint and shaving cream technique you will find lots of examples. Hope you give it try it’s also so much fun!
'mornin' Anne! I learned this from Barbara as well - I refer to her as "my RUclips daughter". 😂😂 ...and yes, sucking instead of blowing isn't a mistake you make more than once! 🤢. Scooping the bubbles works GREAT!! Isn't it funny how we - well, *I* - have done a lot of these things, then forget about them?!!? You're so much fun!! Have an awesome day!! Hugs, MK 🤗❤️🤗
Good morning! Oh Anne i had a good laugh when that bubble popped at you im sorry so funny tho😅 but ive been wanting to try the bubble thing for a very long time! Thanks for giving me some courage to do so. Your makes were beautiful as always ❤❤❤
Hmmmmmmmmm......very interesting! I don't bake papers (I have commandeered so much of our house for crafting already, I can't take over the kitchen, too!) - but the sunshine might have an effect. Of course here in Portland, we're in the rainy season, but I can try this in June!
I suspect that when you drag your paper to the side, you are popping the bubbles. I tend to put my paper down and then pull it straight up. Hope that is helpful.

This all makes sense! Thanks so much, Savana! I really appreciate your watching!
True! Scoop the bubbles onto paper and let them pop on their own to make a beautiful pattern.
Love both techniques. Really great background paper.
Thank you for sharing. 🤗☃️
Thanks so much, Lynda!
Hi Anne. It was really fun watching you experiment with all these bubbles. The results were smple but beautiful. Thanks so much. ❤ 🇨🇦 😊
Thanks so much, Brenda! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Oh, Anne, this looks like fun. Being a beginner I love to watch your videos to get inspired.
That's so kind, Debra, thank you! I'm so happy you're enjoying these projects!
Good morning. The grasp was very fun to watch. Love the results.😊
Thanks, Barbara! I had fun doing it and it also nudged me along in cleaning up all the bits and bobs on my desk!

@@annekenlon Lol. I have a lot to learn about art before. Who knows one day.
@@annekenlon I just bought 10 bottles of acrylic ink. Michaels has them on clearance $3.00 a bottle. 😃🤪
Loved chi’s bubble technique. I think these papers would be great to write on! Comparable to tea/coffee dyed paper
Yes, super for journaling on - although I like the patterns so much, I want to showcase them on the front! I'll make more soon. If I can stand hearing myself make that slurpy noise!
Looks messy, but fun. I'm looking forward to trying different papers and different colors!
Thanks, Anne! It’s a little wild, but it makes for some interesting backgrounds!
Beautiful backgrounds Anne, such a fun technique ❤❤❤
Thanks so much, Selina, I appreciate you!
I love how your papers turned out. I definitely am going to give this a try using watercolors. Thank you for another brilliant video. Hugs from Michigan, my friend. ❤❤❤
Thank you, I'm so glad you enjoyed it! And lots of love right back at you!
Hi Anne...what a fun way to spend time in your craftroom. 😅
It’s always a fun place to be! Thanks for watching, Lori!

I'm learning so much about bubbles from all you wonderful viewers - thanks for the tip!

I've seen that technique - thanks for the reminder! I think my grandson would enjoy that a lot!

Oh, MK, you always make me laugh! So funny to hear you say "my RUclips daughter" - Barbara is quite a gal!

Thank you, Shawn, I always appreciate you! And I was definitely laughing at myself!!!
Love it thank you.
❤Wendy in Australia
Wendy, thank you! Hope you'll be bubbling along with this project, too!
Fabulous..
Thank you so much!
I wonder if drying them naturally, out in the sun or in the oven will create different effects.
Hmmmmmmmmm......very interesting! I don't bake papers (I have commandeered so much of our house for crafting already, I can't take over the kitchen, too!) - but the sunshine might have an effect. Of course here in Portland, we're in the rainy season, but I can try this in June!
Try drops liquid food coloring
Ooooo, fabulous idea! I bet that color would be really strong - thanks so much, Kathy!
