Happy World Watercolor Month! We are almost nearing the end of July, but I just learned from fellow demonstrator, Theresa Gloe that you can watercolor with our water-based inks onto our Glimmer Specialty Paper. I haven’t experimented on other colors of glimmer paper yet, but I had to try it out on the vanilla sheet and share this awesomeness with all of you! Thank you Theresa.
I just showed live on YouTube and on Facebook about an hour ago step-by-step directions for creating a couple pretty cards that feature the Splendid Thoughts Bundle and some watercoloring tips/techniques with the Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper and this Glimmer Specialty Paper. And now I’m sharing that video here in my blog post. Be sure to watch the video by clicking here (or you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog post), scroll through the close-up photos that follow, check out the measurements & products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.
