Getting started

Gather the supplies needed to create this project:

• AquaTint pens
• cardstock
• stamps & sentiments of your choice
• spray or spritz bottle with clean water
• paintbrush (or waterbrush)

Watercolour with the stamp

Step 1:
Scribble your chosen AquaTint pen colours directly over the stamp.

Step 2:
Stamp on to dry cardstock.

Step 3:
Using a damp brush, pull the colour out.

Make it messy

Step 4:
Place a piece of scrap cardstock down on the table, turn the cardstock away from you and spritz the bottom of the image so the colour runs.

Step 5:
Allow to dry thoroughly.

Make an extra (optional)

Step 6:
Before cleaning your stamp, spritz some card and stamp onto it.

Step 7:
Drag the colour out with a Clear Sparkle pen.

There will not be as much colour to drag out as the ink would have already moved with water.

Step 8:
Turn your finished pieces into cards, frameable art, or whatever you would like!

This technique works well on white or kraft cardstock - try it today!
