Today's Sketch & Alphabet Letters O&W: Oak Tree, Wild Wasabi, White, Watercolor. Also, Watercolor Wednesday: Tissue Paper Watercolor
Using tissue paper, I spread ink on a craft mat, misted, mixed a little then placed my paper on top. I also crinkled a little before gluing it to the cs. Stamped the tree and sponged on some green and sky, then used a blender pen and ink to add to the trunk and grass. Sponged around the sentiment, which is popped up over the twine. The white panel is also popped up. The triangle represents the sun's ray. Thanks for stopping by! ~Roberta

The watercolor tissue is so soft and gentle for this gentle message. I like the symbolism of the sun's rays brightening the sorrow. Thanks for trying my first sketch challenge.

I never tire of seeing LAAT! (I was just thinking of this stamp the other day.) It is beautifully sponged and blended. WOW! Thank you so much for describing how you did that and also your tissue paper technique, which is just lovely in the colors you chose. Wonderful card!

That is a wonderful oak tree and your wonderful water colored background is so masterfully done.
