Ultimate Crafts Loose Watercolour Trio :D


A trio of loose watercolour cards using a mixture of Distress Inks and Pixie Powders along with the phenomenal Ultimate Crafts A4 stamp set free with issue 41 of Creative Stamping :D This is a really easy way to achieve this look, simply use a stamp positioning tool (so that you can line the images up exactly, if you're not too fussed, you can just use an acrylic block :D) and stamp first using some Distress Inks, then spray with lots of water to get the colour moving, adding in some Pixie Powders for a touch of luxury, then once it's dry, stamp the image in black directly over the top along with a sentiment :D Then to finish the card simply over stamp the sentiment in the background using a coordinating color of ink, and add some coordinating Nuvo Crystal Drops too :D
