I need help please

[Avoca Sue]

I am seeing some amazing creations using the flowers from 5th Avenue Floral set. The creators are referring to the Patty Bennett watercoloring technique. So far I understand that they are embossing the images and using re-inkers to color the images.

Would someone be kind enough to let me know how I can find the tutorial? Or attach the link to this thread?

I would appreciate it so much.


TIA

Sue

Oh, and apparently it only works on shimmery white. I've tried Whisper White, Very Vanilla, PTI White and GP white and no of them worked.

I think the reason it works so well on shimmery white is that it's coated so the ink can pool and spread before it soaks in.

I searched for this info for an hour yesterday! Thanks so much for the posts.

I love Patty's video...she does such a great job. As it says on her blog, this technique was introduced by Crystal French of Denver. A fellow demo shared her technique at SU's Seattle Regionals last month.

Crystal emailed a bunch of other projects she'd done with it...she even uses black and gold ep. This is so fun to play with... It really is almost "zen-like," lol...watching the ink spread in the water is just mesmerizing!

I've done the technique with watercolor paper and it worked great! Here is the card: Tangerine Roses by annascreations at Splitcoaststampers

I put your card in my Favs with that one. It's stunning! No wonder your color is so vivid using the watercolor paper. I will have to try that.

I don't have Shimmery White or the clear embossing powder but tried glossy white and white embossing, which turned out like the tutorial, so that might be an alternative for somebody.
