#96 Watercolour As Ink
Today’s lesson hopefully feels familiar to stampers, whether you are experienced with watercolours or not. We will be applying ink to our stamps, and stamping it onto watercolour paper in a fairly traditional manner. However, the extra beauty comes when the ink flows and blends together!
Tips & Tricks to Note
- When selecting stamps, I recommend using a detail layer from a layering stamp set.
- Don’t over spritz your stamp with water, you don’t want it to get to wet or it might result in a loss of detail.
- Experiment by mixing various colours directly onto the stamp.
