Hello there, it is Verity here from Pretty Little Button for the Bumbleberry Design team. One way to create a background quickly is to make a watercolour background. If you don't have watercolours, then you can fake it by using your reinkers. Watercolour background with reinkers is perfect for heat embossing on, and as I still love the Catherine Pooler Boho Fall release, I created another autumn thank you card.
Written and photos TITLE:
Start off by wetting a piece of watercolour cardstock with clean water. Add a few drops of re-inker to an acrylic block - these work great as makeshift palettes. For this panel I used the following colours:
- Clay Mask
- Merlot
- Serene
- Sparkling Berry
