I focused on:
-floral theme
-cut out for sentiment
I changed:
- technique (from markers to distress ink stamping)
-layout
-added back a white panel in my sentiment cut out
I call this 'no-watercolour-watercolouring'. This lovely sketchy floral stamp set (Golden Garden) has no corresponding solid stamps, so I used solid stamps from another set (Mini Blossoms). I chose a solid stamp that kinda-sorta fit the image I was stamping. I knew this would give me a loose watercolour feel and I purposely did not emboss the outline stamps, so that the ink could go outside the lines sometimes. Each solid stamp was inked with distress ink and then misted before stamping. Each area was stamped with more than one colour, to create blending and interest.
