#1 Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator Pootles – Very Vintage Wink of Stella Watercolouring
Ah, so pretty!
I love watercolouring with Wink of Stella. It gives such a beautiful look, and as I’ve said many times before, Stampin’ Up! makes me look good! Well, Wink of Stella makes me look like an absolute genius artist!
The stamp set is just divine anyway on its own, and I genuinely think that it looks good either way, but the glittery watercolour ‘bleed’ takes it up a level.
This technique works best of all with richly pigmented colours such as the deep reds and darkest purples and blues, but I decided to try out a middle range colour with Gorgeous Grape and I have to say, I’m just as pleased. It’s a more muted look, but just as lovely.
And this kind of packaging for a gift is a great ’emergency’ make! You know those moments (we all have them!) when you realise you need a project urgently but no time to get out the entire Craft Room. Those ones…
So I hope you like the technique and that perhaps you have a go at it too!
