MIX4 Watercolor Flowers

Photo Details

Poster: Arizona Maine

MIX4 - Water you doing?! (2/22/13) by Dini
and
WT415 - Sponging (2/21/13) by Cathymac

I used a watercolor technique found here:
http://www.heroarts.com/learning/tec...cfm?techID=251
I applied the Faber Castell PITT aritist pens in rainbow colors directly to the craft sheet, sprits with water and pressed the stamp onto it with a little twist. I also sponge the corners for more definition.
Thank you Dina, for the challenge! This was fun!

I love what you do with this stamp! This is so pretty with the mottled, watery look! I just went looking for it after seeing all your creations and realize I don't have it! Sigh. This is gorgeous!
