Hi there! I always love finding and sharing new ways to use stamps to get unique results. Today’s video shares a few ways to stamp with water-based markers and create gorgeous watercolor effects that are easy to control.

On the first example, I colored the Nordic background stamp using Glitter Markers. When using a felt tip marker, be sure to color on the side and be gentle so that the marker tip doesn’t fray! I gave it a light spray of water and stamped the background. These markers are so sparkly and give a beautiful watercolor look.
For the second card, I stamped down some images from the Flower Garden stamp set using Aqua Flow Markers to create a beautiful floral scene. Then, I used a water brush to lightly pull out some of the colors and create a light wash of color inside the images. This is easy to control and the results are stunning!
For the last example, I used the Glorious Bouquet stamp and colored each flower with the Aqua Flow Markers. I did this process in my MISTI stamping tool so that I could stamp each section of the image separately. Each time I sprayed the image once before I stamped to create a hand watercolored look!

They are all beautiful Simon but the last one is definitely my favourite!
Awesome cards, I love how the large flower stamp turned out!
Love the colors you chose for your stamping, Very pretty cards.
Really, really pretty and colorful cards. I love the marker technique and esp. love the two floral cards.
Beautiful cards. I love the idea of using the water color markers and the Misti together, great idea. My favorite is the one with the 2 flowers. What a great technique to use the water color maker and then blend it out to paint them. Thanks for another great video.
