Topical Tuesday #65 - Watercolour Flowers

Hi there,

It's Marion here for this week's Topical Tuesday (even though it is Wednesday - my apologies for the delay :) Today I have a video on how to create a watercolour effect using distress markers and water. This technique works best with solids stamps. For this project I have mainly used the Designer Flowers stamp set.

Hope you enjoy.

I would love to see your creations.  Please share them in the gallery over at the Ning House.

For a full list of supplies, head over to my blog.
 

Thanks for stopping by,

Marion
