 | | This photo of a hydrangea inspired me to pull out my hydrangea Big and Juicy stamp pad from Ranger and do the acrylic watercolor technique. I also saw the butterfly shower curtain that inspired my big orange/yellow butterfly.
Acrylic watercolor technique: I ink up the acrylic block and spray it heavily with water, place the watercolor paper panel on the block and let it absorb the water and itÂ’ll give the paper the light multi colored look when it dries. Remember the more the water the lighter the color will be.
Clean off the acrylic block.
The second step is to ink up the acrylic block and mist it lightly holding the spray bottle about two feet from the block. Lie the same panel on the block again and let it absorb the little bit of moisture for a deeper colored ink pattern.
Different textures of watercolor paper will give different results.
You can find a tutorial with photos on my direct blog post here.
Scor-Pal was used to add the double embossed lines to the watercolor panel and the faux brads were cut with the Tiny Tags die from Cuttlebug, I punch a ¼” circle and place it over the hole of the tag to cut. These are attached to the card using a stick pin dipped in Aleene’s Paper Glaze then touched to the back of the circle cut out to pick it up and it’s then placed on the card, I press down with the finger and pull the pin away then slide the cut out into place if needed.
The butterfly image was colored with Copic markers YR09,07,04, Y38,35, along the edge BV08,04,02, on the body C2.
The butterfly was embossed using a metal ball stylus and folded paper towel.
Stickles was applied to the butterfly edge and body.
Nestabilities were used to cut and emboss the sentiment panel.
