Watercoloring with Distress Inks - Part 2

Hi everyone!! Hope your week is going great!
I got allot of requests about a tutorial for this card:



On this card I used the beautiful Large Flower Pattern stamp from Hero Arts! Its a gorgeous stamp and a must have! There are so many creations you can make using this stamp and since so many of you requested to know how I did this card I want to share with you today another video tutorial. This is my second video, im starting to get the hang of it. If anyone knows any good video editing software, please let me know. The one that came with my Flip isn't the best. Just email me at weememoriesblog@gmail.com, thanks!

So in the beginning, I show what you need to make this but I will list it here as well:
Large Flower Pattern stamp from Hero Arts
Papertrey Ink White cardstock
Watercolor Paintbrush
Tim Holtz Distress Inks
Mini Mister from Ranger
Large Acrylic Block
Baby wipes

Other supplies used to create the finished card:
Burlap Twine
Papertrey Ink Kraft cardstock
Old Letter Writing stamp from Hero Arts
Thinking of You messages from Hero Arts
Antique Engravings from Hero Arts





Hope I explained everything so you can understand how I did this. It's very easy and fun! Please let me know if you create one like this, I would love to see!!


Thanks for watching!! Have a great day!
:) :) :) Jenny


P.S.: I will be back later with your Color Cubbie Winner and I will be having a HUGE giveaway and another video tutorial using the Lifestyle Crafts Letterpress!!

Great video Jenny! I thought this was how you did it, but I wasn't sure how you did the white edge. It really helps to see it too! I appreciate you taking the time to make the video so quickly and share your talent with us. I love to do water coloring, but mine is not as good as yours! I plan to try it and practice again soon! Thanks again so much for the inspiration!

This is my 1st visit and I must say I loved it.
Not sure what exactly I enjoyed the most about your video-the technique, your instruction, or the view- but it was very good and I wanted to watch it thru to the end.
Thanks,
