Faux Watercoloring Card
Watercoloring is a very special technique. Creating that effect is very simple if you combine Memento Inks and/or Kaleidacolor Inks. Let me show you just how easy it is:
Directions:
- Ink your mat with the colors of ink that you want to use. DON’T MIX the colors, just ink the mat and spray it with Ink Potion No. 9
- I am using a double step stamp set. One part is the border and other is the inside layer. Stamp the border images with Peanut Brittle Memento Ink.
-
- Ink the solid image directly over the ink that you have on the mat and stamp it over your card stock. If your want you can re-ink the image with the mat colors and re-stamp to obtain different tones.
Easy and beautiful don’t you think?
To finalize the card I stamped the sentiment with Versafine Clair Shady Lane and clear embossing powder. Then I resized the layer with a stitched die cut and pasted it over a card base.
