Welcome to Watercolor Wednesday challenge. We are going to do some watercoloring and embossing. A great technique for watercoloring. The embossing creates a barrier for the watercolor paints. You can view the video here:Watercolor Embossing Resist Tutorials at Splitcoaststampers Hope you can play along and have fun. Our team has enjoyed seeing all your lovely cards these past weeks.

Last week some of you had questions about paper, brushes and watercolor paints. Kia has posted a thread of some of the things we use. Since this is a learning challenge, when you upload your card could you please go into detail what you use. We would appreciate your input. We can all learn from each other. Thanks
Linda, I enjoyed this so much! My son and I shared the dining room table this afternoon. He painted a landscape with acrylics and I worked on my watercolor card. It was so relaxing, painting and listening to music!
Had my card done fairly early this morning but my phone been in an endless loop for the past 2 days (wouldn't send or receive anything but a phone call . .) so I couldn't get my pic to send to my computer. Finally got to Verizon - luckily they could reset it so it's workable now but back to "FACTORY" settings on everything (YUCK) . .
I’ve been out of the loop and just discovered this new challenge thread. I’ve been wanting to get better at this, so will have to go back and take a try at previous challenges. Here’s my resist card. This was fun!!!
I used Arches watercolor paper and Karin water brushes. Most of the color was diluted with water, in a few places it was applied directly from the marker to paper. I tried to do a background like Linda, but put the ink on with the marker and could not blend it out...so did my best to finish it- a few splatters added too.
