Watercolor Backgrounds: Tips and Techniques


No matter your crafting style, a great watercolor background is often the best foundation for cardmaking, art journals, bible journals, or scrapbook layouts.  Watercolor can be brilliant and bold, or subtle. 
All too often, I hear students say they're afraid to try their hand at watercolor washes and backgrounds.



I put together a live video today, with a few tips and techniques that will take some mystery out of watercolor backgrounds. 
You'll be surprised because I used some mediums that you typically would not think of using for watercolor backgrounds.  I used Color Burst, Color Burst Ink Pads, Liquid Watercolors and Color Burst Ink from a refill bottle.

You'll have to watch, the results are beautiful and easy to replicate over and over. 


Thank you for joining me today!  I hope you're inspired to create a few watercolor backgrounds for your next crafting project.

  1. It is ridiculous, and unsustainable, to keep adding religious holidays to the public school calendar. The labreportwriter.com should not close for any religious holidays that are not required.
