One More Cone Flower
This was the last of my frenzy of cards I made using this set. I think it is my favorite cards so far. I love my watercolor crayons, but truly only use them with an aqua painter. I brush the aqua painter directly onto the crayon to pick up the color and then I go to town coloring in line are stamps. This stamp is obviously not a line art stamps, so another cool technique with the crayons was used here. I misted the stamp with a little water first (I keep an empty Stampin' mist bottle filled with water) then colored directly on the stamp with the crayon. I mist again and then stamp onto watercolor paper. The colors blend so nicely and it creates this wonderful watercolored image. It really is a quick and easy technique to produces wonderful results. If you are a customer and reading this here is another sneak peek of a card we will do at my up coming Sept. 7 class! Hugs,
