WEDNESDAY’S WOW! #163 – TRY A WATERCOLOUR WASH ON YOUR IMAGES

Wednesday’s WOW! #163 – A Watercolour Wash on your images.

You might have tried Watercolour Washing over your card to create a background, but have you tried giving your stamped images a wash? It creates a really soft look.

Stamp your image on to Watercolour Paper. This one uses the Painted Lavender stamp set. Spritz over the image lightly with water. Allow to dry for a short time. Then stamp over the washed area again with the same image. You will get a mottled look with a wash in the background. It looks really lovely.

Hope you get to try it out. I have added this image below so you can save it to try later.

Happy Crafting,

BUTTERFLY WATERCOLOUR WASH + VIDEO!

Today’s card uses a fun watercolouring technique.  I call it a watercolour wash.  It’s a great way of colouring your images freely without worrying about staying in the lines.  That’s so cool if you are not one for neat, “in the lines” colouring.

I have used the stamp set Positive Thoughts for this card.

You can check out the video below to see some tips in creating it.

Positive Thoughts is such a beautiful stamp set.  I particularly love the sentiments in it.

I hope you give this idea a go. Try it with different stamp sets.

Thanks for visiting me,

Jenny
