I like the soft blending of colors when you add them with a clear block. It is a very easy technique with unique results each time. What do you think?

I applied the colors using markers on my clear block. I then spritzed the block with a bit of water and stamped my watercolor paper in the middle.
I set the panel aside to dry.
I then stamped the field of poppies from the Painted Poppies stamp set and added the sentiment from Tasteful Touches. With the green and purplish hues in the background, I decided to leave the images clear.
Lastly, I added a few Highland Heather sequins.

I agree I love the soft ink blending. Great colors you used too.
ReplyDeleteYou're right, Lisa. Not all colors will blend well or as easily. I do like to try it out sometimes on scratch paper before ruining one of my watercolor panels or waiting to cut it up, so it doesn't look as bad.
DeleteI love this technique, and it made a great card! I'll have to try this!
ReplyDeleteYou will not be sorry, Fonda. It is a fun technique.
