Watercolour Inky Background Card with Graceful Stamp

Take a piece of watercolour cardstock and apply raspberry watercolour ink to create a base layer.

Add water to the colour to dilute it and create texture on the card.

Dry the first layer completely between adding colours to build texture.

Apply a second layer of colour, such as yellow, over the dried first layer.

Dry the second layer and add a third colour layer to create depth and variation.

Stamp the Graceful lady image in black ink over the watercolour background.

Press firmly and repeatedly to ensure good ink coverage on the watercolour card.

Create an ombre effect on the sentiment by stamping it with orange, then pink, then purple inks.

Dry the sentiment between colour applications to define the ombre effect.
