dragonfly dreams water color


This card made itself. Well, after the black embossing was on there. If you've never worked with water color paper, you need to try it! I just sprayed it down really good and dropped reinker on it where I wanted the color. It bloomed out EXACTLY how it should! I did dab a bit of the excess moisture off and tipped and tilted the card so it would all act like I wanted it too.

If you're unsure how to do this, let me know. I'll personally show you if we live close enough so I can!

i so love this technique and this card is absolutely stunning! Which colors did you use exactly - I am going to guess pacific point & bermuda bay...

Thankyou! It's my current favorite technique due largely to how this one turned out. The bloom went EXACTLY where I told it too! Gotta love that!!
Pacific Point, Emerald Envy and Pool Party. I mixed those last two.

I love how your card turned out - I wish you were here (or I was there, or whatever) so you could show me how to do it. I try but it just never looks so perfectly imperfect. I may need to go practice some more.
