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.
