Stamping on Wet Watercolor Paper



    My club classes this month and last have been focusing on Watercolor techniques.  This technique today is called Impressionistic Stamping.

1. First spray water on the water color paper until it is wet all over.

2. Next stamp your image on the wet paper.  The ink will spread out and become a little blurred.  I wanted to use a 2-step stamp for my card so I used the Too Kind stamp set.

3. Once the ink and paper are dry ink up the smaller image in a darker color and stamp on top of the blurred image. You should have a bright and clear stamped image. 

  This effect resembles some of Monet's paintings.  What stamp would you use to make a card using the Impressionistic technique?'
