Truly Scrumptious Washy Watercolour :D


A trio of really simple messy watercolour cards using the lovely cake/sweet/flower cart stamp from the Truly Scrumptious A4 stamp set free with issue 39 of Creative Stamping Magazine :D This is such a gorgeous stamp set, and this is actually my third video using it (I think the other two were called 'How've You Bean?' and 'Belated Birthday Wishes' :D), as well as for the five cards I made for the magazine too :D There are so many occasions that this set will be perfect for, it's really one of those must have sets :D I wanted to use all three variations for the cart stamp, so I decided to make a trio of really simple cards, I used three different colour combinations of Gansai Tambi watercolours to create a washy background over my images stamped in black (Ranger Archival, as this is a permanent ink so won't run when you add watercolours over the top :D), then once they were dry, I came back in with some coordinating colours of alcohol markers and added a little bit of solid colour to certain places :D Such a simple idea, but it makes a nice quick and easy card :D Hope you liked them :D
