Alexandra Renke Bloghop: Inlaid Watercolor

April 27, 2018 by Sandy Allnock 34 Comments [featured_image}

 

Alexandra Renke Bloghop: Inlaid Watercolor Dies

Inlaid dies are intricate – but lovely! In this video you’ll see little tricks for cutting out a sentiment without “wasting” a piece of watercolor paper too! The palette, by the way, can be seen in the free Preclass lesson in Blue Skies – you don’t have to take the class to see me swatch out each color and decide if you want to try one out. Watch the video below or click HERE to see it in HD on YouTube.

UPDATE: She loved the card! And the presentation went really well. Yay!
