12. Ombré Dip-Dyed
This technique relies on physics and gravity to create a seamless gradient.
- How to make it: Mix a dye bath or use highly concentrated watercolor in a shallow tray. Dip the bottom edge of your paper into the liquid. Leave it for a few seconds for a dark edge, then slowly pull the paper out. The paint will wick upward, creating a natural fading effect.
- Ingredients: Watercolor or fabric dye, shallow tray, cardstock, paper towels.
