Hello stampers! Today I want to share a fun little watercolouring tip. It really is amazing what one small change can do when you are watercolouring. I used the gorgeous Joy of Noel stamp set which is sadly retiring. Get it before it’s gone!!
What’s the watercolouring tip??
You are probably most curious as to what the tip is for improving your watercolouring. I like to press the ink pad onto a clear acrylic block and then pick up the colour with a Water Painter. To add more depth of colour add a little more colour using one of our Stampin’ Write Markers!
It’s that simple. If you add just a little colour with the marker and then blend it in with the Water Painter, you get an amazing depth of colour. Try it and see!!
Joy Of Noel Cards
The card below was cased from the talented Angela Meiritz-Reed from New Zealand. I love the Granny Apple Green and Garden Green together.
I do not consider myself an artist per se. I am creative, but I don’t really paint. That is why it was a revelation to me to layer two different colours of green on one leaf. How beautiful! How elemental. Definitely not rocket science, but it was for me. It made me happy and that is what counts. I have never taken an art lesson, so this was a lovely discovery. Perhaps it is new to you too! Enjoy. Have fun. That’s what really matters.
Video Tutorial
Of course, I made this little video to show you this little watercolouring tip in action. Seeing is believing! This is a short video, so you only need to invest a minute to learn the trick.
Exciting News!!!
Did you know that I now offer platform memberships on my YouTube channel? This is not the same as subscribing to my channel; it is a step beyond! About a month ago YouTube offered me this opportunity and they asked me which perks I could offer to my members and this is what I came up with.
The Video Buff gets an exclusive video each week as well as a card recipe the day before. This video gets posted on Thursdays at 10am EST.
The Creative Queen gets the exclusive video but also a month pdf tutorial with at least 14 projects.
The Creative Business Builder gets the previous perks plus a weekly training video or motivational talk.
