Quick and Easy Water Color

This card is not an original. I believe this card was first shown at a SU! Event and since then has be recreated and cased a lot. I used this card as part of my watercolor class recently. I have already shown you two other cards we made that were actual water color, using reinkers and water color paper (a must for really great water coloring.) But this one gives us the same look of water color in an "Express Card" feel. It uses basic supplies, markers, regular cards stock and a solid stamp image (verses the outlined images usually used in water coloring)

This techniques is a great quick alternative to traditional water coloring because it shows how any stamp can be used to get a water color look not just certain sets.

In this technique all you have to do is color in your image with markers, then spritz with water until you see the ink start to bubble and bead, then just stamp away. Pretty, huh?
