Watercolor Wash Background Technique
Hidy Ho Stampers,
July 16, 2021. Yesterday I shared a pretty watercolor wash background using the Cattails stamp set. Today’s card share is a beautiful watercolor wash (remember the ones that only take a few swishes with a 1″ brush and you are done) using the geese in that same set. Let’s take a look at what I have for you today …
I added the Bitti Birds to this one. I just love the way it came out!
Just divide your paper where you want the water/land lines to be. Wet the top of your watercolor paper with water then add some colors. Let them run or direct them where you want the to land. It’s so much fun! Let that dry. Then tape the top half and do the same with the water below. Let that dry or hit it with the heat tool. When you are done, you can tweak if you need to but I don’t usually do that until I stamp my image over the top! I do several watercolor wash backgrounds at a time and leave them until I know what I want to stamp on them. SOOOOOOOO easy!
Here’s yesterday’s card using the same set. Click here to see the entire post.
I’m sooooooo over the moon excited that I have been chosen as the Featured Stamper this week over on SplitCoastStampers ( click here to see the challenge www.splitcoaststamper.com)! What an honor! Thank you SplitCoastStampers.
We just added more products to our Sidewalk Sale and the One and Done Sale – check back daily as we add more new stuff often.
Before I sign off today I wanted to show you two items I use and are in the links below (in the menu). These are not conventional items but can help with your organization and presentation.
The first is the way I am now storing my slimline stamps/dies/embossing folders. They are just refrigerator storage container units. There is a specific size I use. click here for the direct link.
Seriously these work for your slimline stamp/die storage!!!!
Then the next thing I wanted to show you is how I stand my cards up to display and to photograph. This one is not from the refrigerator, it’s used by florists. It’s called a frog, I’m not sure why, it doesn’t look a thing like a frog but that’s what they call it. Click here to check it out.
Remember, it doesn’t have to be hard, it doesn’t have to be complicated, just fun and thoughtful. All products can be found in our Teaspoon of Fun Shoppe.
Thank you so much for your time today. It means a lot to us. If we can ever help with any of your stamping needs, please reach out, we are here to help and teach, that’s what we love to do. We love that you let us come into your home and spend a little crafty time with you! It’s so much fun sharing what is such a passion. Happy Crafting today!
Remember to share it, pin it, buy it and let us know what you think.
(((Hugs)))
