Hey Baby!

Just playing around with some new techniques...watercolours! There a lot of Youtube tutorials on watercolour techniques (for beginners!) This would be considered "dry on dry,"  I think. I used hot press watercolour paper, because I thought I might stamp on the paper - but I decided not to and just used some cardstock instead. I love the look of watercolours on cold press paper, but don't think it is as easy to get a clear stamped image on the cold press. I also used the "fork bow" technique for the first time in a long while.  Not gonna lie... it took me several tries to get a bow that I liked. (Awesome Youtube tutorial -  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JkVSWk-ULBs ) Thanks for looking! :) Supplies : Watercolours Craft pink ribbon (Dollarama) CTMH ink, Cotton Candy Tsukineko Dew Drop Brilliance Fast-drying pigment ink, Pearlescent Orchid CTMH White Daisy Cardstock Fabriano Hot Press Watercolor paper Unity Stamp Co. - So Happy for You stamp set
