Altenew Needlework Motif water coloured, heat embossed card
Hi!
I decided to make a second card with the Altenew Needlework Motif stamp, keeping it in the same place on the card, just using a different colouring technique. This time I went for water colours and used my Gansai Tambi water colours. These are really thick creamy water colours so you can get really strong colours with them as well as the more traditional wash type looks you get with many watercolours.
Here's a video quick video of how this one was done. You might want to speed it up to double speed which you can find under the cog on a computer, or under the 3 dots in the top right corner on a mobile device, unless you like to relax and watch people colouring in!
The embossing acts as a resist for the paint, so it doesn't go outside of the lines, so it's a fun thing to paint without having to concentrate too hard!
Don't forget to use an anti-static bag before stamping with embossing ink.

Lovely splatters to hide where I got a finger print! |
