Stamping with Distress Watercolor Pencils
What are your greatest loves in life?
‘Love’2nd project February 2024 Country View Crafts
For me it has to start with family and this card will be for my daughter's birthday this year.
Process Steps
Focus panel. Langton Hot press card – watery dip, drip and dry background using Worn Lipstick, Scorched Timber, Aged Mahogany Oxides.
Bundled Sage, Aged Mahogany and Lumberjack Plaid Distress Watercolor Pencils to stamp Floral Outlines CMS430 using the stamp platform.
Water brush and rough palette with Shabby Shutters, Crushed Olive and Scorched Timber to watercolour the leaves.
Fired Brick, Spun Sugar and Scorched Timber to watercolour the flowers.
I knew I needed to mute and distress the watercolours, so I blended Scorched Timber distress ink around the edges and when there was hardly any ink left in the foam pad I rubbed it gently over the whole card. 
I loved the effect of the Distress Watercolor Pencils with the Scorched Timber distress ink, it started to look like a piece of vintage wallpaper.
Three idea-ology gumdrop hearts which were daubed with Aged Mahogany Distress Stain and heat dried.....
Mummy Cloth, a little bit of Greenery I think came from Festive Greenery, thread and flowers from my drawer.
