A safe harbor......

Hi there,

Gina here today to share a card I made using the Couple in Love image from Whimsy Stamps.  Such a fun card to watercolor, the perfect scenery to blend colors together.


I watercolored this image using both distress markers and Derwent inktense pencils.  I tried using a new technique to not get the colors to bleed, by heat setting each area once I completed it.  Using the inktense pencils, once they dry they are permanent, which makes it a lot easier to not allow bleeding between the different areas.

Hope you like this card, please go take a look over at Whimsy Stamps, for this and other great images.

Thanks for taking a peek.

Have a great day. =)
