Painted Stamped Character Card with Collage Layers

Create a blue and purple spray ink background on your base paper.

Stamp your chosen image using black ink and emboss it with a heat tool.

Pick up aqua watercolour and paint the base skin tone of your stamped character.

Add red watercolour to the cheeks and blend it in.

Mix white watercolour with your colours to create tonal variations for contour and highlight areas.

Layer additional colours such as green and yellow over the existing watercolour, building up the design.

Add darker blue tones to paint the hair.

Tear pages from your collage collection and adhere them to your card using wet glue.

Apply a stencilled detail using ink over the layered papers.

Outline the entire card edge with a fine liner in a wibbly frame pattern.

Add a sentiment or focal point to complete your card.
