Liquid Watercolor Background w/Laura Bassen ft. MERRIEST SNOWFLAKE

Hi there! Laura here and today I have a project to sharing featuring some of the new sets from the Winter 2018 Collection.


Watch above or watch in HD at YouTube

To begin I embossed the beautiful snowflake image from Merriest Snowflake with clear embossing powder onto Distress Watercolor Cardstock.

I used Liquid Watercolors to paint over the snowflake embossed background.This is a very forgiving way to paint. You simply slap the paint on and hope for the best:)

For the sentiment I used the Sending Cheer die and die cut several with white cardstock as well as one with white glittered cardstock. I stacked them up adhering them together for added dimension. I also embossed a coordinating sentiment from Merriest Snowflake.

I hope you enjoyed this tutorial. Sending you lots of cheer today! Thanks so much for stopping by!

  2. When you say you painted with Liquid Watercolors, are you referring to reinkers or refills?
