Easy No-Line Watercolor With Neat and Tangle

June 3, 2019

Hey peeps.  I’m sharing an easy no-line watercolor card with you today.  When I just want to relax and color I love to pull out my watercolor palettes and color.  For me watercoloring is a peaceful experience.  I really try hard NOT to let it be overwhelming and intimidating.  To me it’s just water, color and paper. When I do my no-line watercoloring I used Fade Out Ink from InkOn3.  It’s perfect for no-line coloring techniques. Easy no-line watercolor is in your reach I promise.  I made a video sharing the top 5 watercoloring tools you need for successful watercoloring.  You can find it here.

For my card today I used the adorable Neat and Tangle Contemporary Kids stamps set.  I’ve had this stamp for a while however I just now getting around to play with it. I pulled out some gorgeous paper from my scrap pile (can’t remember the brand where this paper came from) for my color palette inspiration.  I used my Daniel Smith watercolors to color up these cuties on Arches watercolor paper.  Once they were colored and dried, I fussy cut them with some scissors.

 

Contemporary Kids By Neat And Tangle

 

To tone down the plaid paper, I wrapped it with a piece of vellum to soften it up some.  Just using the paper without the vellum was making it hard to really see the little kids on my card. Before I placed the vellum over the designer paper, I stamped and heat embossed a sentiment from the Color My Word stamp set from WPlus 9.  I placed the panel on a white card base and added just a few enamel dots for added interest.

Here’s a close up of the card.  This card was so much fun to make.  As you can see it’s a really simple card however it’s so colorful without over doing it.

 

Thanks for stopping by today.  I’ll see you back here soon!

Afternoon friends. I'm back with a card layering u Afternoon friends. I'm back with a card layering up my @heroarts bold prints. I love the look for texture on cards and by using two great bold prints, I created this beauty. A good tip to layering your bold prints, keep it simple! If your bold prints are too busy, layering them will be difficult. 

For my card I used the Hero Arts Ginkgo Leaves and Positive Script bold prints. The script bold print is small enough that it doesn't overpower the leaves. And you don't have to be perfect with the script either as you are just giving the look for words not something that needs to be readable. Perfect match in cardmaking heaven.

You can find all the products I used on the blog today including this beautiful sentiment you see on my card. (it's one that speaks to my heart). Link is in the bio. Have a wonderful day everyone.
