Watercolor Idea to try . . .

By | 07/05/2024

Happy Tuesday! Have a fun watercolor technique based on a sample from Stampin’ Up! for you to try.

Here is what I did:

  • 1/2 sheet of Fluid 100 Watercolor paper, with 3 strips of masking paper 3/4″ wide added to create four sections.
  • Water painters used to add Summer Splash and Coastal Cabana ink for a watercolor wash, alternating colors.
  • Once paper was dry, stamped images in Basic Gray ink from the Of Art & Texture stamp set and removed the masking paper.
  • Added to Basic Gray mat, then Coastal Cabana card base.
  • Sentiment stamped in Basic Gray ink and colored with Summer Splash Stampin’ Blend Markers. Added with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • Slipped ‘a speedy recovery’, which was die cut under the sentiment.
  • Tinsel Gems give just the right amount of bling!
