I send cards to my In Color Club each month focusing on a different new color. For June, I highlighted the new In color Soft Succulent. I took photos of each step I did while making this card, thinking you may like to see how to create it too. It’s a fun card and technique to make: Easy Watercolor Wash Using Water Painters & Ink Pads.
When you introduce water to card stock, you want to use either Watercolor or Shimmery White paper. Both are thicker than normal card stock and can hold the water without pilling. Normally, I use a permanent ink such as StazOn Black because it won’t bleed when I introduce water. For this card though, I wanted the watercolor washed look, so I used Soft Succulent ink to stamp my image.
