While viewing the lessons for this class I knew I would welcome the
opportunity to use one of my favorite Altenew stamp sets. That being
the ADORE YOU set.
I began by cutting a mask for the large flower from Mint Masking Tape
I then stamped the outline stamp of the large flower using Ranger Black Archival Ink
to prevent bleeding from the watercoloring I planned to do.
After stamping the large flower I masked it off and
aligned the two side facing flower stamps and
stamped them, again using archival ink
Next I was excited to have an opportunity to use
the new Ranger watercolor crayons (set one)
to color the flower images.
I practiced with several color combinations
until I was satisfied with the results I was
looking for. I also added shading on the
yellow flowers to emphasize the curves
in the petals.
Next I, again, used mint tape to mask off
all three flower images and used a water brush
with Ranger cracked pistachio Distress Oxide
to make a backdrop for the flowers.
I then uses a shaped die to cut the design.
I am glad you shared your mistakes/outtakes as well. It will definitely help others in their journey. I hope you liked the new crayons.
