Kia was our host & had a WONDERFUL VIDEO for us! Once again, making 3 cards at once. Which I REALLY like! Lots of tips & tricks in this video, so be sure to go over to take a peak! THANKS KIA, for a SUPER CHALLENGE!
So, I gave this a 2 in difficulty, because of the paper I used---Arteza WC paper is not the easiest to use. I got it when it was on sale on Amazon.... I should just keep it for WC die cuts, but I like to use it when I am "experimenting" & learning. It has a texture to it--(you can see it in the top right hand corner of the blue cloudy sky clearly), & soaks up the water SO FAST! It is hard to get the WC's to move as they are supposed to, but I can make it work with a little more effort.
I should mention too, the lady on the video said not to worry about going "muddy" on the second card.... Well, I got "muddy" alright, but I think it is how things look in the fall too, just like she said. My husband liked this one the best!
HOPE YOU LIKE!!!! ;)

You are an expert at watercoloring. These are three awesome and very beautiful cards. Yes, that is why I like hot press....more time to move the paint around before soaking in. Thank you for playing and leaving us these beautiful cards.

Awesome job on all three Becky - beautiful work. I am a paper snob to be sure, with some I have used I can't do squat and those that pill - need I say more? lol

You are very good at this! This makes me want to give watercoloring a try again. I tried it when I was young and it was not for me then. . . it was so hard and frustrating then bc you have to be loose and not so "perfect". Now, that I'm older, maybe I can go with the flow!
