Another White Wash Techniqe

The white wash technique is relatively simple.

Begin by stamping your image with Versa Mark

or white pigment ink on craft paper.  

Use fineline white embossing powder.

Now using some type of water color to

"wash" the image and then add soft accents

of color.  I like to start with the color

at the bottom of the petal and

use a fairly damp brush to pull the

color outward until it blends into the white.

The stamp is a PSX or Personal Stamp Exchange.

They have been out of business for a number or years.

This series of stamps are known in the older stampers

world as "The Botanicals".

The ribbon at the bottom was die cut

from Cheery Lynn Designs Alison's Ribbon.

Hint - water colors can be pencils, crayons, 

markers scribbled on plastic, kids water colors,

tubes of water colors, pull ink from water based

ink pads, re-inkers.
