Waterfront Meets High Tide - Klompen Stampers

Want to feel like an artist? Try this easy watercolor technique using your stamp pads, inks and an Aqua painter. I’ve already shared 2 different cards using the Waterfront stamp set and this technique, but today I had the idea to combine it with the High Tide stamp set. There are stamps from both sets used on this card.

Watercoloring Video

Last week I posted a video showing how to do this watercoloring technique. It shows how to make the “mountain scene” card, but this one is made the same way. Just a few different colors and stamps. Make sure you are using the Shimmer White card stock (or watercolor paper.) You want to make sure the colors move around a little bit to give you the watercolor look.

If you are reading this in your email, the video may not show up, so just below click below to go to my website where you can view it.

A Few Important Tips

Make sure you use Shimmery White Cardstock or Watercolor Paper–I prefer the Shimmery White
Make sure each color is dry before stamping another color near it
