This weeks video tutorial features ‘Ballerina’ from KennyK Stamps, Copic markers AND a very easy and cool watercolour background technique. The card you’ll see in the video is the Ballerina card, but the High Score card is made in the exact same way.
The actual watercolour background is quite simple to make. I used a plastic page protector, but any plastic or acetate will do, even something from a box or packaging, as well as watercolour paper, a mister bottle (full of water of course) and Distress Inks
