Hi everyone! I have another Neat and Tangled card to share with you today. This one uses the Origami Map stamp designed by my good friend, Miriam Prantner :) I just got some watercolor powders (Color Burst) and I thought this was the perfect stamp to use it with!
The powders can be used directly on wet paper, but to get this look, I laid down a layer of water onto a large acrylic block (the card size one). Then I sprayed the powders onto the block. After the colors blended a bit (no intervention needed), I laid the paper onto the block. It's so much fun and next time I'll try to video it. BTW, I stamped the map after I made the colored background. And I used Versafine ink to stamp (as a general rule, I use Versafine with water based color media like Distress Inks and watercolors).
Thanks for stopping in and have a wonderful weekend! And thanks to Miriam and Danielle at Neat and Tangled!!!

Much love,
I had never heard of watercolor POWDER but found it online during a search. I like the richness of the colors that can be achieved.
