{Tue} Technique: Gel Press Watercoloring

 Hello, Kraftie Friends!

I had these gel printed papers laying around and used them to make some cards for a few challenges...

If you have a gel press and some dye ink refills, try dropping some colors of your choice on the gel plate and spray some water. You can spread the ink with paintbrush or your fingers...then, press cardstock or watercolor paper on.

I would spray more water after each print to get more pastel colors...

Then, I stamped some images and trimmed them out to make the cards...I chose a stamp set with cups (retired SOTM) for some challenges (they remind me of the cups in "Beauty and the Beast").

Card #1

Panel is dry embossed. And I added some gold paint details on stamped images.

Card #2

Die cut panel was dry embossed and inked in Wild Berry.
