I’ve shown a technique to my Bible journaling peeps – and finally remembered to come do it on my crafty YouTube as well! It’s stamping but not with ink or markers — stamping with watercolor!

I kept the card design simple after all that…I added a “thanks” colored with a Copic in the same colors as the bands painted on that pot on the left. And used some paper layering – 2 stripes sticking out on the right, 1 on the left.

Fantastic soft idea, according to the great google, cactus or cacti have leaves. Do like this idea, not sure I’m quick enough to get it done before it’s dried but hey practice is for that yeah x
Beautiful card a journal page! Love this technique! Will have to try it.
I love this card, and the technique you used! Once again, I picked up some tips on how to improve my results – gotta practice.
Sandy this is just stunning
What a nice card!
This was awesome! I can’t wait to try this! Thanks for always showing the process and talking us through it!
That was really interesting thank you Sandy, and exciting to see the possibilities of being able to choose your own colors and tweak the original stamp image too. Thank you for your excellent tutorial.
This is lovely, Sandy. Thank you for sharing your grift with us. Watercoloring is on my go do list for this year. You’re inspiring!
