Hi, it’s Gaylynn here with another installment of my Watercolor Wednesday series.
Today, I will show a background made with gold watercolor shimmer along with florals made with variegated stamping.
This is a beautiful way to add your own gold watercolor shimmer background for your stamping. For a focal point, add a variegated stamped flower. This looks perfect over the watercolor panel.
Sentiment: You’ve made my day.
Helpful tips:
To begin, I made this card in two steps. First, I stamped the florals onto regular cardstock. Solid stamps were used for this technique. Variegated stamping was added in a lighter shade and then accenting in a darker shade. Then the background panel was painted in gold watercolor shimmer. Finally, everything was layered to finish.
