Hello to you all today. Shanna here with a fun share. I love making cards that are fun and simple. Which is exactly what I have here today.
I love this watercolor technique and thought I would share it with you.
First step is to pick your stencil and I pounced my ink pads on the the stencil.
Then I spritzed the stencil with water.
Then I put my stencil on my watercolor paper, and with a paper towel I pressed the stencil into the paper.
Then I let it dry. Doesn’t that look great?
For my card here I used the stencil Stepping Stones TCW506S with the watercolor technique. I used some different colors of red and pink Distress Ink.
Once that was dry I used the stencil Mini Word Association TCW527S with some black acrylic paint to sponge in Happy.
The second card I used the stencil Mini Kaleidoscope TCW347S for the background and some blue shades of Distress Ink.
Then I thought it would be nice to have something underneath my stamped image. I got this idea to trace out the stencil Accented Star TCW2055 and cut it out. Then I used some Distress Ink with the stencil Mini Believe Script TCW541S on top of the star.
Once again, I used the stencil Mini Word Association TCW527S again with black acrylic paint to sponge in Dream. These cards are great to give to anyone.
Thanks so much for stopping by today.
