Distressed Watercolor Scene + Giveaway

Hello everyone, Joni here with another tutorial sharing how to do a splattered background with distress inks. On this project I used the new Rainy Days Additions and Fox Friends stamp sets and Fox Friends Coordinating die set.

Pretty Pink Posh: Distressed Watercolor Scene + Giveaway

To begin I first stamped the sentiment from Rainy Days Additions stamp set “joy and sunshine” with Versamark ink and then white heat embossed with white embossing powder. Next, I distressed it with Wild Honey, Worn Lipstick, and Evergreen Bough.

Next, I smooshed some of the distress ink on the acrylic block, I added some water and used my brushed to gather the colored water and splattered it on the white panel. I did used all of the three distress inks for splattering.

Next, I colored the fox with Copic markers. I stamped the puddle of water, clouds and umbrella from the Rainy Days Additions stamp set. The umbrella handle is from the original Rainy Days stamp set.

This image below is showing you the water puddle. Such a simple image but it adds so much to the card!

The die-cut images for this project were adhered with foam tape for dimensions. I also added the new Pewter sequins which I think is my new favorite now. The sentiment “sending you” is also from the Rainy Days Additions as well.
