Another Watercolor Garden Pot

by

I tried my hand at another watercolor garden pot using the Art Impressions technique that I learned over the weekend by watching their tutorials.  I created this project for the Splitcoaststampers Clean and Simple sketch challenge and blocks were part of the layout.

I stamped the pot  and used a damp brush to pull the color out over the pot. I added a little bit of rust to the edges of the pot to give the dirty older pot appearance. I masked off the pot and added lots of greenery using my Kittie Kits mini fern image and then removed the mask and allowed some of the image to be stamped over the edges of the pot. I used a damp brush again to pull out the color for a softer watercolor look. I stamped lots of little flowers using a tiny texture image from my Kittie Kits. I heat dried the ink and then sponged on yellow ink for highlighting. I finished by stamping sprigs of grass and then washing it lightly for the grass. When complete I cut it into 9 equal squares to mount on the colorful background paper.

I love the bright raspberry flowers and the matching ribbon.  Here’s a little closer look.

  5. Kittie, this is beautiful!! And since I’m trying to get caught up on yesterday’s e-mails, I’ll comment here about how beautiful yesterday’s card was, as well. This is a great technique… I watched the first tutorial that you mentioned yesterday. I don’t have any stamps that would work to make these beautiful flower pots, but it sure looks like fun.
