This is for CAS123. I had to try my hand again at creating a stamped watercolor using the Art Impressions technique that I treid out on yesterdays challenge after watching some fo their watercolor tutorials. http://artimpressions.com/?gclid=CKP...FRNl7Aodn1qTKw
I stamped the pot with Pumice Stone and used a damp brush to pull the color out over the pot. I added a little bit of rust to the edges of the pot to give the dirty older pot appearance. I masked off the pot and added lots of greenery using my Kittie Kits mini fern image and then removed the mask and allowed some of the image to be stamped over the edges of the pot. I used a damp brush again to pull out the color for a softer watercolor look. I stamped lots of little flowers using a tiny texture image from my kittie kits. I heat dried the ink and then sponged on yellow ink for highlighting. I finished by stampin sprigs of grass and then washing it lightly for the grass. When complete I cut it into 9 equal squares to mount on the colorful background paper.

Kittie, your watercoloring technique turned out beautifully. I love how you pulled your colors into the pot, masked your pot and then started the magic of stamping and filling in with your kittie kit. After all that you.......yikes.....cut up your image, but didn't it just turn out beautifully?!? TFS your card and description my friend.....
