Dream Catcher

Hi Guys!

I've been aching to try out my new printer with water colouring, having bought a new epson that uses the waterproof durabrite inks, that actually works with copics too! As it is a colour printer I knew I just had to print the lines in colour. So I printed them in dark brown to make it soft and then coloured it in distress ink. The image I used is called Dream Catcher and is part of the latest release for Little Blue Button Stamps. I also dipped in my new liquitex ink for the copper beads.

Olive You - Valentine Series #2

Hi guys!

So when I learned that this bi-weekly challenge over at lawnscapings was Watercolour I knew I wanted to play along, but I was a little bit divided, I have a little watercolour set I bought a couple of months ago that I still haven't used, but I also just reorganized my distress inks. I ended up playing with the distress inks. I might have gotten a little bit carried away with my drops but I had loads of fun creating this.
