Hi Stampers,
Last week I showed you a technique using ink and an acrylic block to make beautiful watercolor backgrounds. Today I have another quick share of a card that uses the same technique with just 2 colors, Pool Party & Island Indigo.
The sailboat was stamped with the Swirly Bird stamp set in Island Indigo, Daffodil Delight & Calypso Coral. The clouds were made with Embossing Paste and the Pattern Party Masks!
I brushed the "water" with Clear Wink of Stella for sparkle.
This is a good illustration of how different your backgrounds can look by varying the amount of water you spritz on the acrylic block. I used the one in the center for this card.
Here's the inside of the card. I used the cloud masks again with white craft ink and a sponge dauber. The "waves" are sponged on using one of the dies in the Swirly Scribbles Thinlits as a stencil.
Thanks for stopping by today! To read more about this watercolor background technique, visit my August 22 blog post.
