WCW004 Watercolor Wednesday No Line Watercolor

[Benzi]

Hello Crafters! We have a fun challenge this week: No Line Watercolor

Gallery for WCW004

Keyword: WCW004

We have a video this week for you from Lydia showing steps to do this technique. I do love this songbird she did.

 

I am using Distress Ink Antique Linen to stamp my image which is used by many artists I have watched doing this technique online. I didn't have the ink Lydia used. I stamped my image lightly and began to watercolor with my brush. The color you stamped with will begin to take on the color you are using to paint the image. I think it gives a pretty handpainted look.

If Lydia's video doesn't work for some reason, there is also a good tutorial here on SCS for the technique. If this link doesn't work, go to tutorials, type in No Line Watercolor. I found it to be about 5-6 tutorials down.

O.K., let's just have fun!

[hobbydujour]

Favorite way of watercoloring stamps so they don't look "coloring book". Thanks, Brenda.

This is going to be a challenge for me. But I am up to it! Can't wait to try this but it is going to take me a few days - lol!

[bubblestx4]

The true test of any challenge for me is will I actually SEND this card to someone or will it languish in a box. I am happy enough with the look I got here to send this right out to my niece!

Here's card #1. Working on card #2. WCW004 Just a Note from my Sandbox by cheermom - at Splitcoaststampers

[ArtzadoniStudio]

I think the reason I don't color my images as much as doing exploratory backgrounds, is that it forces me to stay focused longer on one thing. I am a bing-bing-bing kind of gal, who likes to change processes every 6 minutes. Thanks for giving me therapy..... Gallery at Splitcoaststampers by Lori "Artzadoni"

Hi There. I am running behind. Partially because of VSN and partially just life. I have put off trying no line until now. Thanks for the nudge.
