WATERCOLOR BACKGROUND using an
ACRYLIC BLOCK

This is a quick and easy way to create a one of a kind watercolor background with the help of your Stampin’ Write Markers and an Acrylic Block.

SUPPLIES:

Stamp Set:
     Love & Sympathy (122795-w)

Card Stock  (including cutting dimensions):
     Whisper White (100730), 2-3/4” x 4-1/4”

Ink:
     Jet Black StazOn (101406)

Markers:
     Tempting Turquoise (131259-all 10 markers from Brights Collection)
     Island Indigo (131262-all ten markers from Regals Collection)
     Elegant Eggplant (131262-all ten markers from Regals Collection)
     Tangerine Tango (131259-all 10 markers from Brights Collection)

Accessories:
     Clear Block D (118485)
     Stampin' Spritzer (126185) filled with water

INSTRUCTIONS:
1-  With your markers, ‘scribble’ a 1/2” block of each color, one above the other, working your way from the bottom of the Clear Block to the top, completely covering the Clear Block with ink.

2-  Generously spritz the Clear Block with water and ‘stamp’ on the piece of Whisper White card stock, pressing the Clear Block very firmly until the colors are ‘smooshed’ together and the ink has saturated the card stock. 

3-  Stamp the image of your choice over this background using StazOn Ink and then layer it onto a full Whisper White card, using Stampin’ Dimensionals to set it up a bit.

Simple and clean.
