Live your Dream - Enjoy the Journey




I'm sharing a bookmark with you today that I made with a couple of my new products from Crafting Ability.
 The tag/bookmark was covered with black paper to intensify the beautiful watercolors I was going to use.

Gansai  Tambi Starry Colors
Pretty shimmery golds was applied with my new watercolor brusH2o over ARtplorations Happy Flowers Stencil.

I used Red Gold & White Gold
I like the fact that the Starry Colors set comes apart so you can conveniently use them individually.

Live Your Dream-Enjoy the Journey
I brushed the white gold on the other side of my bookmark let dry, and sealed the watercolor with a matte medium, before stamping the sentiments using jet black archival ink.

My thoughts:
I found the water coloring brush to be not only easy to use, fill with water and your ready, eliminating the need for a brush and water (I could even write with it) but also it was very easy to clean.

I am in love with these two products by Crafting Ability!


 

 I really enjoyed my first play with water colors!
And I will be exploring this new medium more!

  3. Love what you did with these Tee, the contrast is lovely. I have these and the 24 set of Gansai Tambi paints... LOVE them. I always associated watercolor painting with... soft and sedate and wishy washy landscapes till I bought these.
