Craft a Scene challenges is having a beach theme. We are to make a beach project with a bit of sand and water. I am still playing around with water color techniques and I included images from our sponsor Rubbernecker and Kittie Kits.
I started out stamping my two main images with Stays On black because I didn't want them to run when I added water to the paper. Then I used the sand stamps from the Kittie Kit Cause a Scene to stamp in the sand area. I watered and brushed this part until I was happy with the coverage. Then I applied blue directly from the marker and watered it around. The sky was next. After it all dried I added the grass stamps, birds and sentiment (from Stampscapes) and colored in the characters. The white water was added with a Uni-Ball Signo gel pen.
