I had many failed attempts in many color combos to make a watercolor BG that I liked before I decided to flick my medium into the water.

I've finally finished a card for one of these challenges. The challenge inspired me to make this piece of background paper last weekend but I just converted it into a full blown card today.

Fun - fun- fun
Here is my journal cover The actual colors are really vibrant and the Silks Acrylic glaze actually has a metallic sheen that doesn't show in the pic.
No to go through the gallery to see all the wonderful creations
I had to come back and say that I sure didn't follow everyone else - I used water soluable and did blend, but way different. Oh well...

I spent HOURS yesterday playing with stamping markers and watercolor pencils for this challenge. I decided the markers were not a good idea. The pencils have hope. I'm not giving up just yet.... The funny thing is I just colored a bird with my watercolor pencils for a prior challenge and I liked it. Don't give up on me, I'll post something, lol

This is over a week late, but a 9 year old friend taught me a neat technique on the weekend with water, dish detergent, and food colouring so thought I'd make a card with the resulting background and post it in this challenge - a bit of an unorthodox technique, but we certainly used water to make colour move! Here's my card:
Poppies on a Soapy Watery Background

Here are two from me. When I get "Dylusional", I create multiple sheets at the same time.
Thanks for a great challenge.

Dini, I loved this video. Can you tell me a little more about the re-inkers you used in the beginning of your video. They appear to be small jars of color? I'd love to know where to look for these. Thanks.

The reinkers I use are from Ranger - they come in little squirty bottles or dropper bottles. I just keep mine in an empty watercolor paint palette so they're easier to get to - squirt a few drops in each little well.
Most of the ones I have are from this line:

thank you for the inspiration and ideas. I used acrylics on wet and let them merge and also drip.
