TUESDAY TOP TIP

.
Lots of people use their stamps to ink in black or grey and then colour in with their preferred colouring medium eg watercolour pencils, markers etc.
.
.
Here are my supplies for today's TUESDAY TOP TIP.
.
As you can see, we have a clear stamp mounted onto an acrylic block. I have Stampin' Write Markers in Rose Rose, Old Olive and Chocolate Chip. The stamp in the photo has already been inked and ready to stamp.
.
.
These are the 4 images I have stamped from that one inked image. For best results you will need to use Watercolour Paper #105019. In between each one, I have held the stamp, face upwards, mid air (away from the table) and spritzed lightly with a very fine water spray. Stamp again and repeat.
.
Once you have finished stamping, take your Aqua Painter #103954 and gently pull in the colour already on your image. There is no need to add further ink. Take care to clean your brush on kitchen paper in between sections and when changing colours.
.
Pop back later and I will post samples made at Saturdays Workshop using these images.
.
Happy craftin'
