Water Color Technique using Quiet Meadow Bundle

Hello Crafters! 

I had a fun weekend at the scrap retreat I host each March. I'll have another in September if you're interested in joining me. During this last retreat I held a card class focused on color/ink techniques. I don't water color very often, but when I do I forget how fun and easy it can be to dress up a card. 

I have been having so much fun creating with the Quiet Meadow Bundle, I decided to used it again on this card. 


Give This water coloring a try. I simply added a few dots of ink to a tray (other side of the stamp pads work great), dabbed my water color painter in the color and painted it on the paper. The water color paper works really well when using a lot of water. It does not take very long to dry, but you do need to let it dry before applying to your card.
